Guildford Castle is one of the oldest and most impressive buildings in Surrey, United Kingdom. Built in the 11th century, this castle is one of the best-preserved Norman strongholds in Britain. Guildford Castle is a combination of fortification and medieval palace, with great towers, a keep, a barbican gatehouse and a half-timbered great hall. As a traveler and photographer, you can explore the castle grounds, where you will find the remains of a 12th-century chapel, a banqueting hall, an elaborate 15th-century water garden, and an 18th-century octagonal summerhouse. The castle is now home to a museum of the local history and a visitor centre. It also offers spectacular views of the Surrey countryside.
