Castle Keep

The city of Newcastle is named precisely for Castle Keep, a castle that was built by the Normans in 1080, on a Roman building on top of a hill overlooking the River Tyne. The castle has gone through many transformations throughout its long history, but today, some things still remain in its original form. It has an indoor museum where you can see a large number of old artifacts. What I liked about the castle is the climb to the top. You can enjoy amazing panoramic views of the city: With the train station behind you, the river and bridges near Gateshead to the side, and the cathedral on the opposite

Side.

Castle keep es una fortificación del palacio original de Newcastle. Reemplaza un castillo anterior que habían construido los Normandos, y que dio su nombre a la ciudad. Hoy lo están renovando pero al interior está abierto para las visitas. Partes de Castle Keep son del siglo XIII, aunque son escasas, la mayoría son más recientes. En 1080, el rey normando William I manda a su hijo para el norte para defender el país contra los escoceses. Por eso construye cerca del río Tyne un castillo rodeado de murallas para su defensa. De este castillo no quedan más que una parte de las murallas. El nuevo castillo lo construyó Henry II, en el siglo XII, y Henry III lo terminó. Puedes subir del castillo a ver buenas vistas sobre la ciudad. Es un monumento histórico que pertenece a la ciudad desde 1809. Castle keep es una fortificación del palacio original de Newcastle.

Castle keep est une fortification du château original de Newcastle. Il remplace un château antérieur, construit par les Normands, et qui a donné son nom à la ville. Aujourd´hui il est en rénovation mais à l´intérieur on peut rentrer pour le visiter. Certaines parties de Castle Keep sont du XIIIème siècle, mais il en reste peu, la majorité sont moins anciennes. En 1080, le roi normand William I envoie son fils vers le nord pour défendre le pays contre les invasions des écossais. Pour cela il construit près du fleuve Tyne un château entouré de murailles pour sa défense. De ce château il ne reste rien, juste une partie des murailles. Le nouveau château a été construit par Henry II, au XIIème siècle, et Henry III l´a terminé par la suite. On peut monter sur le toit pour avoir une bonne vue sur la ville. C´est un monument historique classé qui appartient à la ville depuis 1809.

Lugar ameno para visitar. Se podrá subir hasta lo más alto del Castilo, donde se podrá tener una postal panorámica de la zona. Se pueden encontrar aquí con cursos para caza fantasmas, ya que se corre el rumor que hay algunos aquí dentro, una experiencia divertida.

Equally colo I said before, you should not skip this visit

Igualmente como he dicho antes, no se debe saltar esta visita.

Excellent
El famoso castillo de Newcastle, es visita obligada si estas de viaje por la ciudad. Cuando estuve allí tuve la mala suerte de que estaba en obras de mantenimiento.
The famous castle of Newcastle, is a must if you are traveling through the city. When I was there I had the bad luck that it was in maintenance works. Likewise, I said before, you should not skip this visit.
