Carisbrooke Castle in the Isle of Wight


The Isle of Wight is the largest island of England, exactly in the middle on the southern coastline. Due to its good location, it became a spot for holiday resorts.
The main sight of the island is the Carisbrooke Castle, exactly in the center of the island. Excavation findings suggest that there was already a fortification on the site during the Roman Empire. A remarkable part of the castle is the well-house, operated by donkeys :) Like a hamster in a wheel, a donkey is walking in the giant wheel to make the well work.
In this postcard, you can see the operator guys posing together for a photo :)
