A short uphill walk from train station. We had one hour wait for train connection and decided to go up to castle grounds. We did not go in the castle. You have a nice aerial view of surroundings. There are also informative placards. If you go from train station give enough time for the crosswalk you need to use. It’s an odd 4 point crosswalk and takes longer to wait for the green sign than it actually takes to walk up the hill. On the opposite side of castle there is a nice bricked plaza with shops and a nice place to take a drink if you have the time. If you are driving beware of limited parking. We were there mid week and noticed available parking spaces right there.
These are just ruins of the old castle. Country Hall built on the old site. Just a portion of the old wall exists with a partial tower.
Local parking, short walk to the main entrance, huge castle to walk around and filled with interesting items including a museum which is over a few different floors within the castle. Well worth a visit. We did it in a couple of hours but you could easily spend three to four hours in the castle.
There really isn't much left of the castle to see, mostly just the gatehouse and some wall, but there are info boards telling about the history and life in the old days which are interesting, and a pillory and stocks for a quick selfie opportunity or somewhere the leave the kids while you go have a break and a quiet coffee. There are much better castles around, but if you're in town anyway it would be silly to miss.
Small part left of this castle but nice to visit . Lovely views from the side
