Join Woolwich Works for a FREE building tour as a part of Heritage Open Day.

About

As part Heritage Open Days, Woolwich Works invites you to come along on a tour of Woolwich Works for a taste of its incredible history.

The architectural award-winning, Grade II and II* listed heritage buildings date back over 300 years and have some amazing stories to tell.

You will be led around a variety of our historic spaces by one of our guides and hear stories from the building’s past like London’s first fireworks displays, visits from Kings and Queens, Suffragette protests and more.

The tour will also show how the building has been restored and how it’s used today.

These tours are FREE but booking your space in advance is advised. Each tour will meet in the foyer for the start time.

Duration: 45 minutes (approx.)
