Castle Acre is a village and civil parish in the English county of Norfolk. The village is situated on the River Nar some north of the town of Swaffham. It is east of the town of King's Lynn, west of the city of Norwich, and from London.〔Ordnance Survey (1999). ''OS Explorer Map 236 - King's Lynn, Downham Market & Swaffham''. ISBN 0-319-21867-8.〕〔Distances are "by road" and derived using "(Google Maps )". Retrieved on 2009-01-14.〕
The village is best known today for the twin ruins of Castle Acre Castle and Castle Acre Priory, which lie immediately to the east and west of the village respectively. Both were founded soon after the Norman Conquest by William de Warenne, the first Earl of Surrey. At its heyday, Castle Acre played an important role in the affairs of the State, with many visits from royalty. Castle Acre itself was once a fortified town and still possesses one of its gates, the Bailey Gate. When first established, Castle Acre was one of the finest examples of Norman town planning in the country, and much of this can still be seen.〔Castles Abbeys and Medieval Buildings. ''(Castle Acre Castle Priory )''. Retrieved February 9, 2006.〕

Local government responsibilities are shared between the parish, district and county councils.〔Office for National Statistics & Norfolk County Council (2001). ''(Census population and household counts for unparished urban areas and all parishes )''. Retrieved December 2, 2005.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Election Maps )〕 Castle Acre forms part of the North West Norfolk constituency, represented by Henry Bellingham (Conservative).

The village lies some west of the A1065 Mildenhall to Fakenham road, but is clearly visible from the road. The hamlet of Fiddler's Green lies to the northeast of the village.
