Bungay Castle is a Grade I listed building. The site was originally a Norman castle built in about 1100 to take advantage of the natural protection provided by a curve in the River Waveney.

The remains today of the castle include its keep, gatehouse, curtain wall and the remnants of the castle’s inner bailey wall.

Open daily between 10am and 4pm, the castle can be visited via the visitor centre on the road known as Castle Orchard.
