GAME
Bring on the Battle: children's activity
Imagine you are a soldier hundreds of years ago trying to conquer Windsor Castle: is it easy to break in or are the defences strong enough to keep you out? Find out by playing the Bring on the Battle! game.
Go back 900 years and learn who built Windsor Castle and why, try your hand at archery, dodge burning oil being thrown at you and find out how you became a knight with your very own coat of arms.
