Peveril Castle overlooking the village was built in 1080 by an illegitimate son of William the Conqueror.

Castleton is famous for the rare semiprecious mineral called Blue John, which is found at only one location in the world, a hillside near Mamtor. Blue John Stone is a rare, semiprecious mineral found at only one location in the world - a hillside near Mam Tor, just outside Castleton, in the Derbyshire Peak District National Park, England.

There are four show caves, which are some of the most popular tourist attractions in Derbyshire.
