About	The castle was built in the early 1200's as the home of the barons of Kendal and their centre of administration and defence. The barons were important national figures, playing a significant role in national politics and the wars with Scotland and France. They had a big influence on the development of Kendal. The Parr family is the best known of the baronial families. Willam del Parre founded the family fortunes around 1400 although he was a convicted murderer! His heir, also called William, died in 1483 and was the last member of the Parr family who lived at the castle. The most famous member of the Parr family was Katherine Parr - the sixth and last Queen of Henry VIII. During the Tudor period the castle became a ruin and has remained so ever since.
