Old Shire Hall Courts, Cells and Dungeon Tour

Discover a piece of crime and punishment history in Warwick. This tour covers over 300 years of trials, judgements and imprisonments. See the civil and criminal courts, holding cells and the 17th century dungeon, and hear how justice was handed down in the past.

The tour starts outside the main doors of Old Shire Hall at 10am prompt. Please aim to arrive promptly at 9.50am. The group will proceed to the lower floors so no later arrivals can be accommodated.
