Mythical creatures have escaped from the pages of Wells Cathedral’s medieval library, and they need your help to round them up. The new family trail at the Cathedral opens today (Monday, 6 July) and runs daily from 9 am to 4.30 pm until 1 September.
Follow this playful, interactive trail through one of England’s most stunning medieval buildings, where you’ll see dragons flying, gryphons wandering, and legendary beasts hiding in plain sight—each brought to life from centuries-old stories from the Cathedral’s collection. The trail is included with your standard admission, and valid tickets provide direct access.
With the school holidays approaching and a hot, sunny week forecast, the Cathedral’s cool stone interior might be the perfect family outing on the Mendips. If you’re visiting on Saturday evening, stay a while—WOWFest will fill the Cathedral with a full symphony orchestra for Carmina Burana.
