Class Europe Colchester Castle Trip

Class Europe visited Colchester Castle, which is one of the oldest castles in England. It was built by the Normans over 900 years ago and stands on the remains of a Roman temple. We explored the museum inside the castle.

We saw Roman artefacts such as pottery, coins and jewellery, as well as medieval weapons and armour.   One of the most exciting parts of the trip was going into the castle vaults where we learnt lots about the history of the castle and the Roman temple that stood there before.
