About This Event

Oxburgh Hall offers an immersive gatehouse experience for families on the Oxburgh Estate in Kings Lynn. The interactive journey brings the story of the Bedingfeld family to life, allowing children and adults to explore the historic home together. Admission is required for this engaging historical experience at the estate.

It’s well documented that the Bedingfeld family endured years of persecution and heavy fines as a result of their unwavering Catholic faith. In the 16th Century, homes of leading Catholic families were frequently raided for evidence of ‘Popish activity’ and there were numerous raids here at Oxburgh.

The Immersive Gatehouse Experience allows you to delve deeper into the history of Oxburgh and its priest hole by following the course of one extraordinary day in 1590. In the Gatehouse, a lookout stands at a window as the family sleeps. For 24 hours the household must hold their nerve, endure, and trust in their faith. Join us for an immersive experience in the King’s Room that will take you to the heart of the action.
