Join journalist Sayli Mohite for an architectural and historical expedition, unraveling Nottingham’s captivating tales and cherished heritage.

There’s far more to Nottingham than its links to Robin Hood. On this walking tour, you’ll see traces of the city’s medieval roots and discover how it evolved into a modern cultural center. We will show you Nottingham’s vibrant arts scene and some iconic (and hidden) pubs while you explore its beautiful lanes.

You’ll hear about Nottingham’s pivotal role in the 19th-century industrial revolution, particularly in lace-making and textiles. You’ll see here beautiful old buildings like St. Mary’s Church and St. Andrew’s Church, Castle Gate United Reform Church, and modern structures like the National Justice Museum.
