-----------------------------------------

Built in 1068, Lincoln Castle is a site of great historicsignificance. It was once home to William the Conqueror and is one of only two castles in England originally built on two mottes; the mottes are enclosed by walls that include a square tower (on the smaller one) and an observatory that was built during the 19th century. From 1787 to 1878, Lincoln Castle served as the Lincolnshire's prison. Workers fashioned coffin-like pews in the chapel to remind prisoners that they wouldn't make it out of the castle alive.
