This is a double event where you can choose from two venue. One being Dover Castle. This medieval castle was built by Henry II and was founded in the 11th century and has been described as the "Key to England" and is probably the most well known castle in England. Even some writers have gone as far to say as it may be the largest. Due to its steep and uneven terrain this may not be suitable for those with mobility issues and there is fair amount of walking and stair climbing that will be involved. There is also an optional chance to visit its tunnels that Winston Churchill frequented during his time as Prime Minister.

Alternatively a visit to Dover's Museum in the town's centre offers also an another unique take on its rich history with many interesting artifacts dating back to prehistoric times, with four galleries over three floors behind the building's original Victorian façade.
