Set amidst expansive parkland and a charming lake, Framlingham Castle has witnessed fascinating periods of history. The castle is managed by English Heritage and is well worth a visit. Even if you don't stop by, you can admire the views from the roadside – it's a very impressive sight!

In 1553, Mary Tudor proclaimed herself queen. Since she had more opponents than supporters at this point, she barricaded herself in Framlingham Castle. In case of doubt, the fortress could have been easily defended. But Mary managed to win over more and more followers and was finally able to take the throne. She was Queen of England and Ireland from 1553 to 1558. Today she is also known as Bloody Mary because of the many executions under her rule.

The castle is open daily in summer from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. You can find the opening times outside this period and the entry prices here: english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/framlingham-castle/prices-and-opening-times
