A city once reduced to rubble, Coventry still hides secrets behind every scar and sculpture. Beneath its skyline of medieval spires and striking modern shapes, centuries-old rivalries and silent rebellions have left bold marks waiting for discovery.

Unlock Coventry’s soul with this self-guided audio tour, journeying through echoing cathedral ruins, historic squares and tucked-away radio studios. Find stories invisible to casual visitors but unforgettable to those who listen closely.

Which act of defiance changed the fate of Coventry forever? What cryptic message lies sealed in a wall inside the BBC CWR building? And why did a mysterious procession vanish one night near the old city gate?

Move through alleys where revolutionaries whispered in the shadows and cross thresholds that hold echoes of triumph, heartbreak and hope. See Coventry not just as a survivor but as a stage for drama that never truly ends.

Ready to pull back the veil? Press play and let Coventry reveal itself.
