Most of some versions are written in C. Check with the open source foundation.

It is open source, so just look for linux open source and you should get the source code, I doubt it was written in regular C btw.

The main Linux kernel is almost entirely written in plain C (not C++), with bits of assembler here and there.
You can download the source from kernel.org, in bzipped tar format. You'll want to install cygwin from cygwin.com to get tar and bzip2.
