The Guildhall of St George - Shakespeare performed here

Heritage Open Day: Last chance to see the treasures in this historic building before undergoing extensive renovation. Unique historic theatre. See the floorboards that Shakespeare once trod. Step back in time and discover the hidden history beneath your feet at St George's Guildhall, the oldest working theatre in the UK, right in the heart of King's Lynn. This Heritage Open Day offers a last chance to see the stunning medieval floor - a rare and beautifully preserved feature dating back to the 15th century. Don't miss the opportunity to experience one of Norfolk's most treasured historic sites like never before!

The site was given to the already existing Guild of St George by Royal Charter in 1406 with a second Royal Charter confirming this in 1461.
