On the ground

Open Archaeology at Auckland Castle

Multiple dates and times available

Visit live archaeological excavations and explore the Lost House of Sir Arthur Haselrig - the man who blew up Auckland Castle!

Get your hands on ancient objects, walk amid the ruined walls, and take part in creative activities, and hear all about recent discoveries from real archaeologists.

Location

Auckland Castle, Bishop Auckland, County Durham, DL14 7NR, United Kingdom

Additional location/direction information

Come and find us in the grounds of Auckland Castle - right outside the Castle building. Our archaeology event is free and doesn't need to be booked, but why not combine your visit to our archaeology with a trip back in time through Auckland Castle itself - tickets for entry to the Castle can be booked on our website (aucklandproject.org).
