We love welcoming visitors of all ages to Durham Cathedral to experience 1000 years of history. Learn about the Northern Saints, explore Harry Potter filming locations, see Durham Cathedral in LEGO® or let off steam in the surrounding riverbanks. Kids go free in Durham Cathedral Museum and ages 8-17 can climb the Tower for free.

Address: Durham Cathedral, Durham DH1 3EH.
There is no parking at the cathedral itself and there is a congestion charge if you drive onto the Durham City peninsula so we recommend parking at one of Durham City car parks or using public transport to reach the city centre, such as the Cathedral Bus or Park and Ride schemes. Cycle racks also available.
