A little pricey as it only took us 2 hours to look around but the prisons were nothing like anything we've seen before so that was interesting. The wall walk was also very long compared to others we have been on. The town around the castle was also very charming with lots of places to eat.
Great place to visit if your in Lincoln. Its free to walk around the grounds but there's a cost to view inside the castle and also for access to the outer wall where you can walk around the top to view the surroundings. I particularly liked the dragons poking out of the wall, they growled and smoked.
Great day out for families, couples, anyone really. Visit the jail, and the chapel. Cafe does good food too. Walk the wall for excellent views of Lincoln.
Visited on weekend and quite busy with lots of families and events happening. Included falconry, jousting and more. Interesting old prison on-site. Nice walk and views around castle walk. Worth a look and only £16 for full access
A very nice walk along the castle's walls. You can enjoy the panoramic view of Lincoln city and it's amazing.
Exciting view from each of the watch towers that you can go into.
There is an option to borrow an electronic tour guide in English, French or German for telling information on the spots.
The day we went was the day of a major rain storm coming through so we couldn’t explore the outside areas, namely the wall walk which was a real shame, the inside attractions didn’t however let it down. A really well laid out, organised venue. Plenty to see. I particularly enjoyed the prison and its interactive tables, full of information and facts from days gone by.
The lady helping at the Magna Carta exhibit was very informative but not to the extent where you felt the need to edge away.
What a lovely day out! The castle and grounds are lovely and we enjoyed the lovely views from the castle wall walk. I'd recommend going to the castle prison as well as there are lots of interesting things to do and discover. We happened to go when there was a Steampunk Festival on and it was fantastic, with wonderful people and costumes!
Absolutely phenomenal day out. Staff were amazing and helpful throughout our visit, and despite being a historic building and grounds, it was highly accessible for us.
We were lucky to visit on a dog friendly weekend, which was amazing. And I can assure you, dog friendly meant exactly that. My pup was treated like a VIP.
There are lifts throughout, and plenty of staff present to help guide you to access points. Tidbits of information are presented at every opportunity and it was a great way to spend the day.
A must do when you visit Lincoln. I visited the Castle on a Sunday and thought that it was a bit expensive at first. From the wall there are great views of the city. The Prison was also very impressive as there were actors present who explained what life was like inside. Moreover you can also visit the Magna Carta which is secured inside a vault.
Fancy doing something different visiting Lincon Castle. If so? Then I highly recommend a The Luna outdoor cinema 🎥 experience. Greatly run by the team, check-in was quick, and security check was smooth 😎. Once in find ya spot 👌🏻 and settle down with ya own food and drinks. Or they have food /drink vans if you wish to buy from them. It's slightly high in price. But in all a fantastic experience and great movie 🎬.
