Stone ramparts hide secrets where muskets once flared and ocean winds carry whispers of Plymouth’s darkest hours. Beneath the surface of these ancient streets, hidden tales await the curious.

Wander at your own pace on a self-guided audio tour, unlocking stories and corners most visitors pass by. These stops are more than landmarks—they are keys to the city’s stormy heart.

Who risked everything in the Royal Citadel when mutiny threatened the crown? Why does Charles Church still stand as a roofless monument after fire and war? What scandal unfolded beneath the dazzling lights of Plymouth Pavilions in recent decades?

Stride through echoes of rebellion, devastation, and reinvention. Watch Plymouth transform with every step as forgotten voices call out from ruined churches and fortress walls. Every turn pulls you deeper into dramatic chapters time tried to bury.

Press play now and walk into history where stone and memory collide.
