Chillingham Castle, Medieval castle in Chillingham, England.
The stone quadrangular fortress features fortified walls, a large courtyard, defensive towers, and encompasses multiple historical architectural modifications throughout its structure.
Originally constructed in 1344, Chillingham Castle served as a strategic northern stronghold during the conflicts between England and Scotland throughout medieval times.
The castle maintains extensive collections of period furniture, paintings, tapestries, and military artifacts that represent the daily life of English nobility across centuries.
Visitors should note that access to certain areas requires climbing steep spiral staircases, and the castle operates seasonally from April through November.
The castle grounds include a population of rare white cattle, which have lived in isolation within the park for over seven centuries.
