Itinerary

1. Multangular Tower
Start at one of the best surviving traces of Roman York, where the stones still reveal layers of the city’s long history. It is a perfect place to imagine Eboracum, the Roman city that stood here almost 2,000 years ago.
2. These atmospheric ruins are all that remains of one of the richest Benedictine monasteries in medieval England. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries, its stones were left to tell the story in silence.
3. Bootham Bar
Bootham Bar is one of York’s historic gateways, built on a route that goes back to Roman times. Standing here, you enter the city much like travelers, traders, and soldiers did for centuries.
4. Treasurer's House
This elegant historic house hides stories of wealth, power, and even ghostly Roman soldiers. From the outside, it offers a glimpse into the refined world that grew beside York Minster.
5. York Minster
The south transept gives you a dramatic view of one of the greatest Gothic cathedrals in Europe. Look up at the stonework and imagine the ambition, faith, and craftsmanship needed to build it.
6. The Roman Column
This column once belonged to the headquarters of the Roman fortress in York. Today it stands as a reminder that the city was once a major military and political center of Roman Britain.
Duration: 15 mins
7. Stonegate
Stonegate is one of York’s most charming medieval streets, full of old shopfronts, overhanging buildings, and hidden details. Its name may come from the stone road that once connected the Roman city to the river.
Duration: 15 mins
8. The Shambles
The Shambles is York’s most famous medieval street, with crooked timber buildings leaning toward each other above the narrow lane. Once home to butchers’ shops, it now feels like stepping into a storybook version of the city.
Duration: 15 mins
9. Coppergate
Coppergate takes its name from the Viking age, when craftsmen worked here making cups and other goods. The area is one of the best places to imagine Jorvik, the Norse city beneath modern York.
Duration: 15 mins
10. Clifford's Tower
End at Clifford’s Tower, the dramatic stone keep of York Castle standing high above the city. It has witnessed royal power, conflict, tragedy, and centuries of change in York’s history.
