City of Caves

"what are we doing today?"

Enter and explore a whole new world in the caves underneath Nottingham city and descend into the dark depths of the original Anglo-Saxon tunnels, meeting real cave-dwellers from its dramatic hidden past. See how these caves have been used and adapted over the Centuries by local people to escape and take refuge from the world above.

Visitor Reviews

I would recommend this to anyone living in the Nottingham area - absolutely astonishing to think that so much history took place underground in caves (under the Broadmarsh Shopping Centre) - good audio tour - really enjoyed the experience - Rob / Jan 2010
