The 12th-century Norman keep of Dover Castle is the core of the castle complex. It served as a royal castle and for the reception of princely guests, the interiors were beautifully designed and modeled on the time. Definitely worth seeing. From the viewing platform you have a very good view over the castle complex and Dover.

The keep has a side length of almost 30m and a height of 25m, the mighty walls are 6m thick. Two floors can be visited and the roof can also be accessed as a viewing platform.
