从西萨塞克斯郡的海滨度假胜地小汉普顿向内陆行驶,平坦的沿海平原被阿伦德尔镇所占据。 它看起来并不真实,倒像是好莱坞电影中的风景,因为它非常意外地从平地上升起,一座宏伟的城堡坐落在南唐斯的背景下的山顶上。

阿伦德尔城堡是英格兰第二大城堡,位于俯瞰阿伦河的宏伟场地上,由诺曼贵族罗杰-德-蒙哥马利于11世纪末建造。 700多年来,它一直是诺福克公爵的所在地。 诺福克公爵是英格兰的首席公爵,这个头衔是由他的朋友理查德三世在1483年授予约翰-霍华德爵士的。公爵爵位还带有英格兰元帅伯爵的世袭职位。

从15世纪到17世纪,从玫瑰战争、都铎时期到内战,霍华德家族一直处于英国历史的最前沿。 诺福克公爵中最著名的也许是第三代诺福克公爵,他是安妮-波林和凯瑟琳-霍华德的叔叔,两人都嫁给了亨利八世。 都铎时期对诺福克公爵来说是一个政治上的危险时期:第三代公爵只是因为亨利八世在执行死刑的前一天晚上去世而逃过了死刑!第四任公爵因谋划与苏格兰女王玛丽结婚而被斩首,阿伦德尔第13任伯爵菲利普-霍华德(1557-95)因其天主教信仰而死于伦敦塔。

几个世纪以来,该城堡经历了许多修复和变化。 1643年内战期间,原来的城堡被严重破坏,后来在18和19世纪得到了修复。

阿伦德尔陡峭的主街道两侧有酒店、古董店、工艺品店、茶室和餐馆,通往山顶,在那里你会发现雄伟的天主教大教堂。 1868年12月由诺福克第15代公爵亨利委托设计,建筑师是约瑟夫-阿洛伊修斯-汉森,他还设计了伯明翰市政厅和许多天主教教堂,但可能是更为人所知的是,他是汉森出租车的发明者!大教堂是由砖头包着巴斯石建成的,属于法国哥特式风格,于1873年建成。

为什么不沿着阿伦河从利特尔汉普顿到阿伦德尔走一趟,并试着想象古代的走私者在晚上做同样的旅行,在镇上卸下他们的茶叶、烟草和白兰地等违禁货物。 阿伦德尔也是野禽和湿地信托的所在地,在那里你可以看到成千上万的鸭子、鹅和天鹅,以及稀有和候鸟。
