Clifford's Tower
One of the darker chapters in Clifford's Tower's history is its role as a prison, where many prominent historical figures were held captive. This includes King David II of Scotland, who was imprisoned here for 11 years in the 14th century, and Anne Askew, who was famously tortured and executed here for her Protestant beliefs in the 16th century. Today, visitors can tour the tower and see recreated scenes of what daily life was like for prisoners during this time period.
But Clifford's Tower is not just a site of dark history. It also offers stunning views of the city of York and its medieval town wall. In addition, visitors can explore the castle's interior, learn about its architectural features, and discover the stories of its past inhabitants. From its beginnings as a royal residence to its role as a symbol of oppression and resistance, Clifford's Tower is a must-visit landmark for anyone interested in English history.
