The Priestgate Vaults

About

Always popular, take a trip to the vaults below the museum with our experienced guides.

Learn about the buildings history, past inhabitants and maybe see some spooky sights.

Bought to life through projections and characters from the buildings history, a tour of the vaults will take you through 500 years of changing hands and uses. From the grand home of a wealthy Tudor family, to the city's first infirmary.

Not all tales are for the faint of heart however, as you hear stories from one of Peterborough's most haunted buildings.

(The Priestgate Vaults are accessed via a steep set of stairs and are inaccessible to wheelchair users. Projections, flashing lights and loud noises are used during the tour. Tours last approximately 40minutes. The Vaults tour in not recommended for children under the age of 8 or those of a nervous disposition.
