What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Lincoln Castle (except modern buildings) as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Lincoln Castle was founded in the 11th century by William the Conqueror and later significantly developed by his successors, including Henry II in the 12th century. It is important as a major example of Norman military architecture and as a historic center of administration and justice in medieval England.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
