The Historical Part of the City

The fortress was built by William of London, one of the legendary Twelve Knights of Glamorgan, between 1168-1178. Newcastle Castle is located in the historic area, where also housed the Anglo-Saxon cemetery, a Roman fort and an earlier fortress built by Robert Curthose.
With the construction of the first castle and began the genealogy of the city of Newcastle, famous for its blue lakes and green plateaus between the rocky hills. From the top of the roof opens a great view of the river and the city.
Note that the castle is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday. Tickets can and should be booked online, in advance, to avoid disappointment.

This church cannot be called old, it was built in the middle of the 19th century. But this is the tallest church in the city, and its spire height of 70 meters became the same hallmark of the city. There were not so many Catholics in Newcastle, and the decision to build such a large church was evidence of their faith.
A fundraiser was announced, and by 1842 enough money had been raised to buy a plot of land and invite an architect. It turned out to be Augustus Pugin, known for his work on the Parliament building in London.

The cathedral is named after St. Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors and boats. The first wooden cathedral, built on this site in 1091, burned down in 1216. By 1359, the cathedral was rebuilt in stone, but it became cathedral only in 1882 due to the formation of the Newcastle diocese.
The interiors of the cathedral were mainly made at the beginning of the 20th century according to the sketches of local artist Ralph Hadley, after the cathedral became cathedral in 1882. Medieval stained glass windows were broken during the Civil War, only a round stained glass window with the Madonna and Child remained. All other stained glass windows in the cathedral were made in the 18th century.

Pedestrian drawbridge over the river Tyne. The bridge was designed by Wilkinson Eyre and Gifford engineers. Hydraulic adjustable bridge design allows small vessels to pass along the river. Since its opening, the bridge is a tourist attraction that is periodically divorced only for tourists.
The construction of the Millennium Bridge took more than 2 years, but after installation, its dimensions corresponded to the plan with an accuracy of 2 mm. The bridge consists of two parallel decks, differing in height and divided by intermittent walls of shields: one designed for pedestrians, the other for cyclists. Along the footpath, there are seats for those who want to enjoy river views longer.

The Umfraville family at the end of the 11th century built a stone castle on the site of an earlier Norman fortress. At the end of the 12th century, the Scots tried to seize the castle several times, but unsuccessfully, it was perfectly fortified. Over the next centuries, the Prudhoe gradually fell into neglect, many of its parts have collapsed. In 1808–1818, Hugh Percy, 2nd Duke of Northumberland, partially restored the castle, repairing the outer wall and the main tower.
In 1966, the castle was handed over to the crown, is now under the protection of English heritage and is open to the public.
