Norwich Castle was originally built as a royal palace by William the Conqueror around 1067, serving both defensive purposes and later becoming an important symbol of power during medieval times. Today, it stands as a museum that showcases local history while highlighting its role as a fortress over nearly nine centuries. One unique aspect is its impressive keep—one of the best-preserved examples from this period—which offers panoramic views across Norwich.
Dragon Hall dates back to the early 15th century when it served as an important trading hub for merchants involved in wool trade; it's now recognized for showcasing medieval merchant life. The hall's historical significance stems from being one of only three surviving halls built by wealthy merchants during this time period within England. What sets Dragon Hall apart are its remarkable dragon motifs adorning wooden beams—a testament to craftsmanship—and how they reflect both cultural influences and economic prosperity at that time.
