Tiverton Castle, Medieval castle in Tiverton, England.

The stone fortress stands on the banks of River Exe, featuring remaining sections of perimeter walls, period buildings and several defensive towers.

Built in 1106 by Richard de Redvers under Henry I of England, the castle underwent partial destruction during the English Civil War in the 1640s.

The castle houses a collection of English Civil War weapons, period furniture, and displays about medieval nobility in Devon throughout its rooms.

The castle opens between April and October from 2 PM to 5 PM, offering guided tours and three self-catering apartments for overnight stays.

A single cannon shot during the Civil War siege hit the drawbridge chain, allowing Parliamentary forces to capture the castle without extended combat.
