aboutSectionText

DIG is a hands-on archaeological adventure allowing our trainee ‘diggers’ to discover the most exciting artefacts from 2000 years of York’s history! With four special in-door excavation pits, all based on real-life digs in the city and filled with replica Roman, Viking, medieval and Victorian finds, children can grab a trowel and explore how people lived in these times. Prices and opening times can be found here: https://digyork.com/visit-dig/
