Set against the iconic white cliffs of Dover, the imposing Dover Castle is known as the Key to England because of its integral location on the coast, where it has guarded England against invaders for centuries.

Dover Castle is the largest castle in England, and visitors exploring the expansive castle will find rooms furnished in the style of their former inhabitants or the tunnels that delve deep into the white cliffs and were once used in wartime at the time of the Dunkirk evacuation. Outside, patrons will find breathtaking views of the sea and the cliffs from Dover Castle’s grounds.
