Rarely seen caves underneath Nottingham city centre are set to open to the public as part of the Being Human Festival. The festival will run from Thursday, November 10 until Saturday, November 19.
The festival celebrates Nottingham's unique heritage and famous collection of hidden caves with free exhibitions, tours and talks. The event will examine the hundreds of caves that exist underneath the city including access to a rare tour of a cave system at Wollaton Hall.
Visitors will learn how the caves were created, what they have been used for throughout history and what they reveal about life in Nottingham throughout the decades. There will also be a free 'City of Caves' tour at the National Justice Museum along with interactive exhibitions at Nottingham Contemporary and family-friendly activities at the Nottingham University Museum of Archaeology.
