Bowes Castle is a medieval castle in the village of Bowes in County Durham, England. Built within the perimeter of the former Roman fort of Lavatrae, on the Roman road that is now the A66, the early timber castle on the site was replaced by a more substantial stone structure between 1170 and 1174 on the orders of Henry II. A planned village was built alongside the castle. Bowes Castle withstood Scottish attack during the Great Revolt of 1173–74 but was successfully looted by rebels in 1322. The castle went into decline and was largely dismantled after the English Civil War. The ruins are now owned by English Heritage and run as a tourist attraction. There is free admission during daylight hours.

  • Bowes Castle war eine mittelalterliche Burg im Dorf Bowes in der englischen Grafschaft County Durham. Die erste, hölzerne Burg wurde auf dem Gelände des früheren römischen Militärlagers Lavatrae errichtet und von 1170 bis 1174 auf Anordnung Heinrichs II. durch ein stabileres Steingebäude ersetzt. Zusammen mit der Burg wurde auch das Dorf errichtet. Bowes Castle widerstand den schottischen Angriffen in der Revolte von 1173–1174, wurde aber 1322 von Rebellen geplündert. In den Wirren des englischen Bürgerkrieges wurde die bereits ruinierte Burg größtenteils abgetragen. Die Ruine wird heute von English Heritage als Touristenattraktion verwaltet. (de)
