Walmer Castle & Gardens


Walmer Castle was one of a chain of coastal artillery forts built by Henry VIII that has been transformed into an elegant stately home. It was the official residence of the Lords Warden of the Cinque Ports that included William Pitt the Younger and the Duke of Wellington, who died here in 1852. On display is a collection of prints and portraits of the castle and its wardens. The beautiful gardens include the Queen Mother´s Garden and the Broadwalk with its yew tree hedge.
