Alnwick is a historic market town in Northumberland, England, known for its well-preserved medieval character and cultural heritage. The town is dominated by Alnwick Castle, the second-largest inhabited castle in England after Windsor Castle, which has been home to the Percy family, the Dukes of Northumberland, for over 700 years. The castle gained additional fame in recent years as a filming location for the Harry Potter films and Downton Abbey.
Adjacent to the castle, the Alnwick Garden is a significant contemporary garden complex featuring various themed gardens, including one of the world's largest tree houses and the intriguing Poison Garden.
The town center retains its medieval layout with narrow streets and historic buildings, including St. Michael's Church, which dates back to the 15th century. Alnwick's cultural scene is enhanced by several independent bookshops, art galleries, and the Bailiffgate Museum, which tells the story of the town and its surrounding area.
