From The History Squad


Step inside Kenilworth Castle in Warwickshire, England — home to the longest siege in English history and the ruins of Robert Dudley's desperate, failed bid to marry Queen Elizabeth I. In this video, join historian Kevin Hicks as he explores one of England's greatest medieval castles, uncovering the hidden stories, forgotten details and remarkable engineering that many visitors never notice. Kevin takes you deep into 900 years of Kenilworth's history — siege warfare, Tudor romance, and the slow destruction of one of England's greatest castles.
