Castle on St Michael's Mount is a castle, fort or tower in Cornwall, England. Perhaps the castle watched the sea while people inside argued about bread, tidewater or the day’s work. Maybe its stones still hold the shape of those forgotten conversations.

Built by the de Courcy family in the 12th century, St Michael's Mount is important as a historic and religious site, associated with the Cornish Rebellion of 1497 and now a symbol of Cornish heritage.
