ENGLAND'S GREATEST CASTLE? - Warwick Castle - History

[@bluerock4456]

Had a fascinating visit there 40 years ago. Among other wonders, that Irish elk rack was incredible.

English History Rocks!!!🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿💖💕💯🥰

I worked there in the mid 1980,s during a spring and summer season. I was there working in the cafe but , and being a huge history fan that the castle is so stunningly beautiful first thing in the morning before the tourists arrive, with its sense of majesty and battle. The haunting cry of the Peacocks resonate around and fir a few minutes it can feel like you have gone back in time . I learnt to drive on the state in a white mini van ..,. Happy days.

[@slightlyconfused876]

Certainly the most expensive castle to visit in Britain.

[@MatheusBianchiRock]

Roughly how much?

[@slightlyconfused876]

@@MatheusBianchiRock £25 it may have gone up.

[@MatheusBianchiRock]

@@slightlyconfused876 oh really pricey

[@nestorjrabalos1998]

It’s £29 now. Pretty expensive but I enjoyed so it’s worth it for me. Maintaining such an enormous property is really expensive. Not to mention that they have to pay staffs salaries. If you just want to pay peanuts then don’t whine if magnificent historic structures like this will be left to decay sooner as the cost of maintaining it is already unbearable. The government couldn’t sustain all the maintenance of such historic structures (if there’s any).

[@bst857]

It is worth the price of entry, they really do put a lot of effort into making it a fun day. You could pay more to go to a theme park instead and mostly stand in queue most of the day :D

[@MostlyCastles]

That is a stunning castle and you visited on such a nice day. It really has a fascinating history and is an incredibly imposing building. Thanks for sharing. 😀

[@LancetFencing]

It’s weird that they have a little figure of Henry the eighth in a baroque setting room I doubt his surroundings would’ve looked that way

[@taborhb]

Was my ancestor too in our family tree

[@jongcook8288]

I love charles I painting,

[@TheUntoldPast]

It's huge! When you walk in the room you can't help but be amazed at the size of the painting.

[@nb6239]

I low these videos, keep them coming.

[@amygenaille7863]

Those crosses in the castle walls look like their crosses are upside down from far away but normal way up close. I wonder if that was meant to be for their enemies or if they just look like that on camera.

[@aldencoley6841]

the upside down cross can represent St. Peter’s Cross Just saying

I grew up playing in the grounds of this castle. Lol.

[@lemming9984]

Since Tussauds took over Warwick Castle it is over commercialised and criminally expensive.

[@paulbest2203]

Too expensive, £25 each no exception even for a child . Then be prepared to get stung inside ,everything is super inflated prices . The dungeon visit is extra .Stratford visit was reasonable and no businesses trying to rip tourists off this way . Holidays in England are far expensive for your average family of 4 like us who don't rely on credits and benefits. Never again

[@karenferrell-white5387]

I have been visiting Warwick since 1984 and find it now too commercialized and too expensive; it is no longer the almost dream-like reminder of times past that I saw on my first visit and with which I fell in love. As a teacher, I brought numerous students to this castle to teach them about castle structure and about the history of the area; no more, however. It has been priced out of both my range and those of my students or others I wish could have seen what I saw nearly 40 years ago.

[@KittehHawk]

You say Stratford doesn't try to rip you off, but have you seen the price to get into the Shakespeare museum? The last I checked, it was more than Warwick Castle for an hours visit at most.

[@idatipping2428]

👏👏👏👏

[@mannyrobbo4508]

People must have had nightmares being threatened with confinement down Warwick’s oubliette, it’s utterly terrifying and apparently one of the worst in Medieval Europe.

[@davepowell7168]

Drowning in water would have been unusual.

[@brianlarkin9160]

I visited when I was a kid with my aunt who lived in warrick and worked there

[@BillboBirsay]

Sorry but why do you end every sentence with an up turn. Incredibly annoying.

[@davepowell7168]

The 'wall walk' is called a fire step for obvious reasons. Boiling water was not used, hot sewage was plentiful. Poliorcetics 101

[@jordanleigh8119]

Hmm not for me. It is hard to chose. For me it's a toss up between Arundel, Dover, bamburgh, or Edinburgh

[@samright4661]

I have always wondered what the people of England really think about Royalty? As A American I think it’s nonsense how Kings and Queens even exist

[@Hull01482]

It's a mixed feeling I'd say majority of people here in England support the royals tho up in Scotland it's like 50/50 divide

[@Hull01482]

In my experience I'd say 10% don't care 20% are against the rest support it

[@user-dd1bb4tw4r]

I'm a descendant of Earl of Warwick my great great or great great great grandma was a Warwick. She married lower class so she was disowned by her family. Last year at our family reunion we laughed because we could've gotten our title back for $250,000,000. Soooo that's never gonna happen 😆 🤣 😂
