Join a churchyard tour starting in St Nicholas Square. Was Queen Victoria truly unamused by her visits to Newcastle? Why does a ‘Vampire Rabbit’ overlook the Cathedral? Uncover these mysteries and learn about the lives of those buried here.
This tour is fully accessible for wheelchair users and follows a circular route, starting and ending at the statue of Queen Victoria in St Nicholas Square, NE1 1PF.
These tours are FREE to attend, with a suggested donation of £7 per person. Your support helps us maintain the Cathedral, continue our charitable work, and keep the doors open for all.
Pre-booking is not compulsory; however, please be aware that each tour has limited spaces available.
Please note: In the event of bad weather, an indoor History Tour may be offered as an alternative, subject to the availability of indoor space on the day.
