Warwick is a historic town on the River Avon, symbolized by a monumental medieval castle. In the center, you can also see a building complex with a skeleton structure from the Tudor times.
The origins of Warwick Castle date back to the Norman conquest. The first stronghold was built here at the beginning of the 10th century by order of the Saxon princess Ethelredy. After taking these lands, the Normans strengthened and expanded the castle and established hereditary counts of Warwick, in whose hands the property remained until the 20th century. In the 17th century, a representative part was added to the stronghold and extensive gardens were created. Today it is Warwick's biggest attraction.
Although the city has developed since the Middle Ages, most of the historic buildings date back to the 17th and 18th centuries. A large part of the older buildings burned down in a great fire in the mid-17th century. Lord Leicester Hospital.
