Chetham's LibraryPacked with historical facts and fascinating stories, tours of Chetham's Library are led by our expert staff and volunteers. Explore...
Join us for an exclusive after hours chance to explore the medieval stone passages, secret staircases and richly panelled rooms of Chetham’s Library.
After the Library has closed to the public and the dust of the day has settled, we will be opening rooms and passageways that are normally closed to the public, for a unique and magical experience.
This is an opportunity for visitors to enjoy the building without a tour guide, and soak up the magical atmosphere of our 600-year-old building.
We will be exhibiting items from our current exhibition, ‘Our Library’, celebrating 370 years since Chetham’s Library opened to the public.
All proceeds go towards the upkeep of Chetham’s Library and the collection.
Please note that due to the nature of the building, lighting will be low.
Suitable for adults and young people over 14.
