Thetford Castle is a medieval motte and bailey castle in the market town of Thetford in the Breckland area of Norfolk, England. The first castle in Thetford, a probable 11th-century Norman ringwork called Red Castle, was replaced in the 12th century by a much larger motte and bailey castle on the other side of the town. This new castle was largely destroyed in 1173 by Henry II, although the huge motte, the second largest man-made mound in England, remained intact. The motte, recognised as a scheduled monument, now forms part of a local park, and the remains are known variously as Castle Hill, Castle Mound and Military Parade.

  • Thetford Castle ist eine abgegangene mittelalterliche Motte im Markt Thetford im Gebiet Breckland in der englischen Grafschaft Norfolk. Die erste Burg in Thetford, ein vermutlich aus dem 11. Jahrhundert stammendes, normannisches Ringwerk namens Red Castle, wurde im 12. Jahrhundert durch eine viel größere Motte auf der anderen Seite der Siedlung ersetzt. Diese neue Burg wurde 1173 von den Truppen Heinrichs II. weitgehend zerstört, wenn auch die riesige Kernburg, der zweitgrößte künstliche Erdwall in England, intakt blieb. Diese Motte, die als Scheduled Monument anerkannt ist, bildet heute einen Teil eines örtlichen Parks und wird Castle Hill, Castle Mound oder Military Parade genannt. (de)
