Nestled in the heart of Bishop Auckland, County Durham, Auckland Castle stands as a majestic testament to nearly a millennium of religious and architectural history. The castle’s Gothic and Gothic Revival architecture whispers tales of centuries past, with its grand State Rooms, medieval chapel, and the longest dining hall in Northeast England. Inside, visitors encounter an extraordinary collection of Spanish Golden Age paintings, including Francisco de Zurbarán’s evocative series Jacob and His Twelve Sons, which has adorned the castle’s walls since 1756.
Today, Auckland Castle is not only a heritage site but the cultural heartbeat of The Auckland Project—a visionary initiative breathing new life into the region through art, history, and community.
