|September 2019
Every September a host of venues across Surrey open their doors for free as part of England’s largest festival of history and culture – Heritage Open Days.
-
The festival offers visitors across Surrey and the South East the opportunity to enjoy family days out, explore places not normally open to the public and learn more about the heritage on their doorstep. For its 25th anniversary this year, Heritage Open Days will be puting on ten days of free events. Plus, there will be a special programme of ‘People Power’ themed events that will highlight communities, groups and individuals – both contemporary and from history – who have affected positive change.
