York Dungeons

Not for the faint-hearted, the York Dungeons present a fascinating journey back in time and visitors are guaranteed a ghoulish, grisly experience that will be hard to forget. From the plague-riddled streets of 14th century York, to the Labyrinth of the Lost and its ghostly Lost Roman Legion, adventures with the legendary highwayman Dick Turpin, to the Pit of Despair, Witch Trials, and the real Viking story, visitors can certainly expect the unexpected. Be tried and convicted in the Judgement of Sinners trials, witness hangings and marvel at the life-like waxworks on display. The tour is not recommended for those of a nervous disposition and children must be accompanied by an adult.
