Lewes Castle is a 950-year-old Norman fortress where families can climb the keep for panoramic views and explore the adjoining Museum of Sussex Archaeology. Visitors can also view historical artefacts, watch a film about the town, and enjoy picnics in the castle gardens.

Details can change. Please check with Lewes Castle for opening times, prices and availability before you go.

What families say

Castle offers climbing, dress-up activities and tower exploration, though reviews suggest the structure itself is sparse; suitable for families but not specifically highlighted as child-focused.
