Description

Winchester Castle is een Middeleeuws kasteel in Winchester in Hampshire . Het kasteel werd in 1067 gebouwd. Van het oorspronkelijke gebouw is alleen de ridderzaal nog bewaard gebleven. Hierin is een museum over de geschiedenis van de stad te vinden.

In 1144 werd het kasteel tijdens de Anarchie belegerd door het leger van koning Stephanus, want er bevonden zich troepen in het kasteel die loyaal waren aan koningin Mathilde. In 1302 brak er een brand uit in de koninklijke vertrekken van het kasteel en wisten Eduard I en zijn tweede vrouw Margaretha van Frankrijk maar net aan de dood te ontsnappen.
