Some suggested that the earthworks of thi castle don’t seem to fit in well with its design. Dover Castle seems to have been converted to a castle from originally being some kind of church. During Henry II’s reign, Dover Castle began taking its now, well known shape. A man by the name of Maurice the Engineer built the keep. In today’s world, the castle and all its secret tunnels are popular tourists attractions.
