York Dungeon
Gruesome Fun
For the
more courageous visitors to this ancient city, a trip to the York Dungeons will
prove a fun and fascinating day out. You will be taken back to the grizzly and
often gruesome Roman era, brought to life by live actors, shows and interactive
special effects.
Everything you will learn in the Dungeons is based on real historical
events, which makes for a very exciting and educational experience for all the
family.
Explore the Mysteries of the Past
Here you
will find out what happened to Guy Fawkes after his plot was rumbled, witness the destruction of the plague, and even meet a merciless 18th century
judge... Those with an adventurous spirit can explore the labyrinth of the Lost
Roman Region, which is hidden below the York Minster and houses the ancient
fortress of Emperor Constantine.
Of Highway Men and Ancient Warriors
And if that’s not enough to turn your blood cold, listen to the chilling tale of the infamous highwayman Dick Turpin,
discover the most ruthless methods of torture, and learn about the greatly feared
Viking warriors known as the Bezerkers. You’re even sure to spot a ghost or two
– not a place for the faint hearted!
