The famous White Cliffs of Dover hide a fascinating and secret world. Deep underground lies an extensive network of tunnels – some dating back to Napoleonic times, but more recently used during the Second World War. Explore these on a trip to Dover Castle – no fortress in England boasts a longer history than this strategic castle commanding the shortest sea crossing between England and the Continent. Go back in time at the 1216 Siege Experience, which recounts an epic siege when Dover Castle held out almost alone for King John, against rebel barons.
