Tintagel Castle Cornwall

Tintagel Castle is one of the most mysterious and beautiful historic sites in Britain. A castle currently in ruins found on Tintagel Head, located near the village of Tintagel in Cornwall, England & built on the remains of a coastal headland which is gradually being eroded by the sea. Historians believe that it dates back to the 13th century and it has been long associated with the legend & birthplace of King Arthur. A castle was built by Richard, Earl of Cornwall in 1233. Only ruins are left and there is a long climb up wooden stairs to reach the site, but the majestic views is still has the power to inspire.
