Oxford Castle is now a Museum where you can climb the Saxon St.George's Tower and enjoy its breathtaking 360° panoramic views, descend underground to visit the crypt, explore the Debtor's Tower and part of the old prisons or just decide to relax at Malmaison Luxury Hotel in the other part of the Castle.
