Knights & Castles At York Castle Museum Summer 2011

One of the daily activities taking place this Summer at York Castle Museum is the Knights, Castles and Chivalry from 11am - 4pm, daily from 23rd July til 31st August 2011.

Enjoy outdoor fun activities with a medieval theme this summer and discover more about York's medieval castle, which stood on the site where the museum stands today. Things to do daily include:
  • Make a helmet
  • Enter the tournament arena to practise knightly skills
  • Shoot arrows through an arrow slit
  • Try on medieval style helmets
  • Have a go in the pillory and stocks
  • Castle trail
  • Examine some of the swords from the military collection
As you can see there are lots of things for the children to do.

Why not make your base one of the Valley View Farm Cottages, which are just an hours drive from York, so why not book a stay here in the North York Moors and then spend a day in York and make a visit to York Castle Museum!
