Beautiful and historic, this still functional building is a place out of time. The atmosphere is beautiful, the volunteers helpful and knowledgeable without being intrusive, and the stonework unique. Absolutely worth stopping, if you are in the area

It was a fantastically detailed regimental war museum based on the Shropshire and Mercian regiments; with lots of displays, and it also had a nod to its past to its role in the rebellion against King Henry IV by Percy Hotspur and Owain Gyndower; a play I'd studied as a child. Laura's Tower, designed and built by Thomas Telford was romantic and picturesque as well as the garden with its authentic and original castle wall. Finally the staff were very friendly and helpful, so I would definitely recommend Shrewsbury Castle as a place to visit.

No admission fee, but they do have a donation box that helps to keep this beautiful building

A Saxon church originally stood on this site but following the Norman conquest in 1066, Roger de Montgomerie built a stone church here as part of a Benedictine monastery. The Abbey was altered in the medieval era, after the Civil War and during the Georgian era. The Abbey is a fascinating mixture of history and architecture, as well as being an active site of Christian worship. The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable, and happy to welcome anyone into the Abbey.
