Wenham Museum Family Discovery Gallery is proud to host Castles in the Clouds at Wenham Museum.
Our fascination with castles and the people who lived in them is so strong that even here in the "New World" lots of people have built replicas of medieval masterpieces. Come to Castle Wenham in the Family Discovery Gallery this summer to learn about Lords and Ladies, knights and maidens, and all the hardworking peasants who made up the busy community of a medieval castle.
Children can explore the daily life of a princess or peasant as they play in castle and dress in costume. Join us at our “Castle Wenham” Medieval Tournament on August 28.
