About this Event
For Heritage Open days, explore Huntingdon's historic town hall with a FREE guided tour led by the Cromwell Museum's Curator. The building dates back to 1745, but stands on the site of a Shire Hall dating back to at least the 15th century.
The tour includes the beautiful 18th century Assembly Room, the Council Chamber and the historic courtrooms, where you'll hear about some of the historic trials that have taken place on this site, including the Huntingdon witch trials and the M**der trial of Joshua Slade.
The tour is suitable for anyone aged 10 years and over; the upper floors are accessible by lift and the tour will last about an hour.
Tours are at 11am and 2pm on Saturday 19th September 2026. Pre-booking is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment as places are limited. If you have to cancel, please do let us know in advance so that we can reallocate tickets.
