Discover one of England’s Heritage Cities. Discover a small city with a big story - Lancaster.
Visit Lancaster’s castle and museums to uncover the city’s ancient stories hidden in its walls and buildings, and find out more about the people who shaped its history.
Stroll the meandering towpaths of the canal or along St George’s Quay, marvelling at the Georgian architecture which lines the banks of the River Lune.
The Castle, which is owned by The Queen, is also the striking backdrop to Light Up Lancaster, a two day event where the city’s historic streets and squares are animated with music, drama and dance culminating with a spectacular fireworks display.
To make the most of your visit, check into one of the city’s newest places to stay, The Borough, within walking distance of all the cultural highlights.
