Review & FAQ:

Nottingham Castle Museum and Art Gallery stands on the site of a 1000-year-old Norman castle, and it is the place where the famous legend of Robin Hood originated. The original castle was twice destroyed and was eventually replaced by the stately Ducal Palace you see today, which houses an impressive collection of Fine and Decorative Arts.

You can see about 100 pieces from the collection exhibited against the backdrop of the Long Gallery's striking architecture. To learn all about 1000 years of Nottingham History, you can go on a guided tour of the fascinating Castle Caves, which consist of a labyrinth of manmade tunnels and passages running below the original castle.
