City Walls Experience at Micklegate Bar

City Walls Experience at Micklegate Bar. Take the kids to visit one of the historic gateways into the city – and discover 2,000-year stories involving battles, imprisonment and near destruction! Explore the history of the most intact walls of any English City, which have stood since Roman times. Meet some of the characters whose stories are intertwined with Micklegate Bar: a princess, a Royalist in the English Civil War and an early 20th-century policeman who made the gatehouse his home.

City Walls Experience, a short walk from York Train Station, is open 11th February 2023 – 29th October 2023.
