Touristenabzocke. 17, 50 £ Eintritt, die Tunnel waren leider schon geschlossen und die Häuser sind innen total zerfallen und können auch nicht besichtigt werden. Lediglich das «Hauptgebäude» ist mit einigen Videosequenzen und Tafeln ausgestattet, allerdings auch eher lieblos. Wie man so wenig aus diesem Stück Geschichte machen kann ist unverständlich und der Preis vollkommen ungerechtfertigt. Zudem führt zur Burg nicht mal ein Bus.

I went to Dover Castle in Dover (Kent) England on 7÷12÷2013 (July). It was my first time there. There are actually two main things to see there: Dover Castle itself and the Tunnels used during World War II. It pays to see both. A Blue Shuttle Bus takes you from the town to the Castle. When I asked someone where the famous White Cliffs of Dover were — he said your standing on them. Dover Castle is well preserved and includes even a Roman lighthouse (probably built in the second century A.D.). The Church of St. Mary in Castro (the largest and finest. Saxon building in Kent) is also within the Castle walls. World War II buffs will greatly enjoy the tunnels. Plus, I took many photos that day.

This castle has been one of our most important strategic defensive sites since the Iron age. It’s a great day out, partially accessible by wheelchair, a good fun day out with lots of educational value and architectural treats. Nice café and disabled toilets, carer gets in free, parking available.

BEST PLACE IN KENT!!! Gorgeous stunning castle, never get tired of looking at it. The tunnels are simply fantastic, great for kids and adults. Reasonable to get in, so much to see. Simply beautiful at night when it is all lit up. Please go and visit!

Dover castle makes a great day out for all the family. There’s plenty to see here, from Secret Wartime tunnels (which can be a little bit scary for small children) to seeing the King’s bedroom! If visiting in summer there a lot of places to have a lovely picnic (though there is a restaurant and various places to get a cup of tea or an ice cream). If visiting in winter try to go on an event day, the kids were captivated by the princess that told them a story at christmas last year.

I am a member of English Heritage so i can enjoy this great castle for free. I would suggest getting there early as the secret wartime tunnels get very very busy. You have a guide and go around the tunnel in groups of 25, you first are shown a fifteen minute film of what happened at Dover Castle in the war. Then you are shown around the tunnels. The guides are excellent and very informative. I went recently and there are some new coffee places to go and get a piece of cake and coffee. There is lots to explore. Dover Castle is great place for all the family to visit and have fun day out.

THis is an interesting day and and an insight into a little bit of British wartime history. The tunnels look like they would have been a fairly grim place to have had to live and work — but it is fascinating seeing the old fashioned ‘state of the art’ technology and getting a feel for what it must have been like.
Worth a visit — especially for those into their military history.

The secret wartime tunnels are worth a visit on their own. You have to book your tour in advance and they do get very busy but it is very interesting and shows how the tunnels were used as a hospital.
If you can, go on one of their activity days. We went at August bank holiday and they had a ‘trenches experience’ which was excellent even though we had to queue for about an hour.
