    As part of your visit to Windsor Castle this October half-term, enjoy a range of craft activities to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the devastating fire within the Castle.

    Craft activities

    Drop by the Pug Yard Learning Centre where you can design a stained glass window for the new private chapelor get carving just like a stonemason to commemorate the restoration of the Castle. You could even create a 'grotesque' as a mask to use when you visit The Castle.  The Learning Centre can be found just inside the walls of the Castle. 

    Family Trails

    Don't forgot to pick up our family trail 'Learning About Castles', you can look out for the Castle's defences as you explore this historic site. For younger children, we also have 'The Corgi Chronicle' - a trail to learn all about the fire and the marvelous restoration that followed.
