Guildhall: Monthly Tours

We offer regular tours of the City's historic Guildhall, a building that dates back to the 1400s - and even further back. Learn about how the City operates, its livery companies, famous events that took place within its medieval walls and admire the impressive memorials to some of Britain’s most important historic figures.

Tours start promptly at 11.00 am and last about an hour.  They take place on the day of the Common Council meeting which is monthly except for August and November. Why not go along afterwards and see the City’s democracy in action?

NOTE: Guildhall is a working venue and access to certain parts of the complex (e.g. the crypts) may be restricted on days when tours are running.

Please note children must be accompanied at all times.

The tour costs £15 per person and you need to book in advance. 

On the day of the tour you must bring along your confirmation of your booking and ID.
