Strategically positioned near the Scottish border, Carlisle Castle has witnessed more sieges than any other place in the British Isles?spanning from its Norman construction in 1092 to the final Jacobite siege in 1745. Built by William II to secure England's northwestern frontier, the castle served as a military garrison for nine centuries. Key viewpoints include the keep housing the Cumbria's Museum of Military Life, the medieval walls showing successive building phases, the Captain's Tower with its prisoner carvings, the dungeons revealing harsh prison conditions, and the ramparts offering views toward Scotland. The castle's stonework displays Roman materials reused from nearby Hadrian's Wall, creating a tangible connection to even earlier frontier history.
