About this event
To celebrate National Lottery Open Week 2025, we’re opening our strongrooms here at Kresen Kernow for exclusive behind-the-scenes tours!
Come and explore a state-of-the-art archive centre, and see where we store over 1.5 million of Cornwall’s treasured archives. Look at the research and exhibition spaces, the learning rooms, and the preservation and digitisation studios, which are not usually open to the public.
On Saturday 22 March, we are offering two free tours, at 10am and 2pm, so you can discover for yourself what’s inside the ‘big grey box’. Each tour will last approximately one hour. Our building is fully accessible, but please do let us know if you have any mobility or access needs.
Spaces for the tours are limited, so use this link to book now over on our Ticket Tailor event page.
