A spectacular glass atrium, which will provide Norwich Castle visitors with clear views of the historic structure, is set to be installed this weekend.
Massive glass panels are set to be lifted into place on Sunday, as part of a significant revamp of the city’s 900-year-old Norman landmark.
The installation will mean visitors to the museum will get clear views of the Keep’s beautiful East façade and Bigod Tower, from inside the museum, for the first time in 50 years.

The large open area will also be filled with new shops, a café/restaurant and an educational space.
Structural glass fins, which the larger panels will sit on, have already been installed.
While the majority of the remaining work is expected to be completed this weekend, the work is weather dependent and could be postponed.
The installation is part of a major £15m redevelopment of the castle called Royal Palace Reborn, which will restore the castle's keep to how it looked in its 12th century heyday.
The revamp project is due to be completed next year.
