★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (1 reviews)
Free Cancellation

From $ 8.99

 

Norwich is an ancient city and religious centre, boasting two cathedrals and dozens of medieval churches. The people of Norwich, however, are anything but traditional. On this walking tour, you’ll hear the stories of the dissidents and rebels who stood up for what they believed in, sometimes paying a very high price for their convictions. The tour starts outside Norwich Cathedral, a beautiful example of Norman architecture founded in 1096 by bishop Herbert de Losinga. You’ll enter Tombland (old English for “Empty Space”), an ancient market area where you’ll hear about its surprising past. You’ll wind your way through the old city centre, past lots of tempting cafés, restaurants, and independent shops en route to Norwich Castle. You’ll follow the banks of the River Wensum, as you make your way towards a brick artillery tower called Cow Tower that was built in 1398 to protect the city.
