Launceston Castle dates from the early years of the Norman Conquest, with construction beginning in 1068. Sitting on a high hill overlooking the surrounding area, it was a symbol of Norman power and served as a reminder of the authority of the Earls of Cornwall, and from the 1300s, the Dukes of Cornwall. In the mid-thirteenth century it was remodelled by Richard, Earl of Cornwall. Over its history, the castle has been an administrative centre, a prison and even a pleasure garden.
