Etal Castle

Etal is a beautiful village on the River Till. In the centre of the village stands the fortified tower house from which soldiers marched out to fight at the Battle of Flodden in 1513. The 19thC chapel displays an award-winning exhibition telling the dramatic story of the castle, border warfare, and the Battle of Flodden. Listen to the taped tour when you visit - it brings the story of the historic castle to life.
