Before you go

Good to know in York

Reserve the historic centre

  • York Minster’s sightseeing sessions change around worship and events. Use the available date-specific calendar and reserve any optional tower experience separately.Source: York Minster — plan your visit · checked Sep 2026

Keep outdoor gates and museums in order

  • The selected city-walls section runs from Monk Bar to Bootham Bar. Check access and seasonal gate times; the walls close at dusk and may be unavailable in poor conditions.Source: City of York Council — city walls · checked Sep 2026
