What travelers say:

Located in Medway, Kent, England, Rochester Castle is a well-preserved square Norman building 113 feet tall, about 70 feet square, and 12 feet thick in walls. The castle was originally built by the Romans in Britain to facilitate the protection of troops on the way from Dover to London. In 1087, Bishop Gundulf used the remaining original Roman walls to build the castle we can see today, which is very historical. Although the castle was under siege three times during the war and partially demolished by King John in 1215, the castle that remains today can still give a shocking feeling. Now it is managed by the government and is open to visitors free of charge as a historical monument.
