About Dover Castle

Make time to experience the complex defence systems employed during two World Wars at the fascinating Admiralty Lookout, which has just re-opened following a £1 million refurbishment. With exciting new interactive displays, why not try your hand at semaphore or Morse code, and learn about the techniques used to detect enemy ships.

Discover the labyrinth of secret wartime tunnels built deep in Dover’s White Cliffs. Sights, sounds and pathe news clips bring the drama of its strategic role in WWII alive. Walk through the rooms where Sir Admiral Ramsay planned the “miracle of Dunkirk” and tour the underground hospital as you follow the story of a wounded wartime pilot.
