In addition, the castle is also paying homage to King Charles' previous visit to Warwick Castle in 2014.

The then Prince of Wales spent an hour being shown around the castle, as it celebrated its 1,100th anniversary, viewing the Great Hall, artworks and historical weapons, before meeting characters from “Horrible Histories” and enjoyed afternoon tea.

“We are thrilled to offer free entry to anyone named Charles or Camilla during the Coronation weekend," said Nick Blofeld, divisional director of Warwick Castle.

“We wanted to celebrate and honour King Charles III’s previous visit to our castle as the Prince of Wales. It's a wonderful opportunity for those with the name Charles or Camilla to discover and explore our rich history."
