KING John’s Castle reopens to the public today for the first time in 2021 following the relaxation of Covid-19 restrictions.
Initially, the landmark tourist attraction will be open for four days a week, before moving to seven days a week from May 31.
To mark the reopening, exciting new outdoor elements have been added to the castle courtyard.
A new series of medieval courtyard games are set to bring the courtyard of King John's Castle to life and are similar to the types of games that people would have enjoyed on fair days back in medieval times. Hand crafted, these new additions to the courtyard offer the perfect option for a day out for visitors and locals alike.
