About This Event

The Home and Hearth: Archaeological finds exhibition at Corfe Castle in Poole focuses on the medieval period, when the castle was a hub of activity with houses, workshops and stables within its walls.

The castle was a busy hub of activity during the medieval period with houses, workshops and stables all within the castle walls. Focusing on this era, the artefacts reveal intricate details of everyday life at the castle 800 years ago. Look out for the cheater’s dice, tweezers, a bone flute, personal adornments and other intriguing everyday items.

This is your chance to see these tiny ancient objects up close, sparking your imagination about the people who once made and used them.
