About Barnard Castle
- The Bowes Museum in Barnard Castle is one of the most remarkable art museums in the north of England, housed in a purpose-built French château-style building that was constructed between 1869 and 1892 by John and Josephine Bowes. The museum's collection includes paintings by El Greco, Goya, and Canaletto, as well as an outstanding collection of decorative arts, ceramics, and textiles. The museum's most famous exhibit is the Silver Swan — an eighteenth-century mechanical automaton that performs a graceful swimming movement when wound up — which is one of the most celebrated mechanical objects in the world. Barnard Castle gained unexpected national attention in 2020 when it was revealed that a senior government adviser had visited the town during the COVID-19 lockdown.
