Pembroke Castle
|
|
The most imposing Norman coastal fortress in Wales towers on the crest of a hill near Pembroke. The castle was built in 1090 by Arnulf, Earl of Pembroke. From the top of the massive round keep (75ft/23m) there are magnificent views. Adjoining the keep are the Prison Tower, the Norman Hall and the North Hall, from which a staircase leads down into the huge natural cavern known as the Wogan.
