Westminster Castle is a red sandstone landmark associated with the city's former university campus.
Its tower and prominent hillside setting make it an architectural point of interest within Historic Westminster. The building remains in institutional use, so it is best understood as an exterior landmark rather than a museum with routine public tours.
View the architecture from lawful public access and respect the surrounding school and other active facilities. Do not assume interior or campus access without explicit permission. Check current local information before making a special trip, and take photographs without entering restricted grounds or disrupting everyday activities.
