LAUNCESTON CASTLE – A JOURNEY THROUGH CORNISH HISTOR VLOG 107

Описание: Step back in time with Wayne as he explores Launceston Castle (Kastel Lanstefan) – once the most important fortress and centre of government in Cornwall for over 600 years.

Situated on the Devon–Cornwall border, Launceston Castle was founded soon after the Norman Conquest and became a hub of power, politics, and aristocratic life. Its golden age came during the 13th and 14th centuries, serving as the residence of Earl Richard (1209–72), one of Europe’s wealthiest men, who shaped many of the buildings we still see today.

🔹 Discover the castle’s strategic location, overlooking the River Tamar valley
🔹 Learn about its transformation from fortress to courthouse and prison
🔹 Explore the legacy of Count Brian of Brittany and Count Robert of Mortain
🔹 See how today, the castle is part of a public park, hosting events for the community
