Arundel Castle

The battlement-crowned castle, which dominates views of Arundel, is the seat of the Dukes of Norfolk. Winding alleys lined with rows of attractive old houses lead upward to the imposing fortress, which was founded in the 11th century but was completely destroyed in 1644. Since then it has been much altered and restored, most recently between 1890 and 1903. Of the original complex only the gatehouse has survived, the keep is a Norman addition.
