Lewes Castle & Barbican House Museum
The building of Lewes Castle began soon after the conquest of 1066 and continued for nearly 300 years and is unusual for its two motttes (artificial mounds). From the top, visitors are rewarded with magnificent views of the town and South Downs. Near the Castle gate is the Barbican House Museum which contains the Museum of Sussex Archaeology, the Lewes town model and a touch-screen history computer.
