Medieval Nunnery Tour

📆 Friday 20th March | 2pm – 3:15pm
🎟️ £8 per person

Step back to the year 1538 and enter Delapré Abbey at the twilight of its life as a Cluniac nunnery.

For centuries, this sacred place has witnessed triumph and turmoil, surviving the Black Death, royal excommunications, and even the thunder of battle during the Wars of the Roses!

Discover the story of St Mary de la Pré: how it was founded, how the nuns lived, and the ingenious ways the Abbey sustained itself; from trading essential commodities to receiving generous royal patronage.

Join Sister Brigitte as she guides you through the history, revealing the routines, prayers, and secrets of those who devoted their lives to faith within these walls.

History comes alive—will you answer the call?
