During Conservation Week we highlight the amazing work that goes on to care for Knole's collection in the showrooms alongside specialist conservation in the Royal Oak Foundation Conservation Studio. See the teams in action and take opportunities to ask questions and find out more.

In the showrooms, you can find the Collections team in the Great Hall and learn more about the tools they use to care for the historic collection at Knole. From Monday to Friday at 12pm and 2pm, the team will be giving 15 minute talks about the role they play as preventative conservators, the tools they use, and how this links to agents of deterioration.

In the Leicester Gallery, the Collections team will be using specialist methods to consolidate the original floor surface, helping to keep it stable for many more years to come. They will also be opening up different furniture to see the hidden details inside.

From Wednesday to Saturday in the Royal Oak Foundation Conservation Studio, join conservators for a talk to find out about the specialist work they do.

Normal admission applies to Knole. Please pre-book an admission ticket per person. Car parking is free with admission.
