"Halifax Town Centre Taster" Walking Tour

Welcome to Halifax! Whether you have lived here all your life or it is your first time here and you want to orientate yourself around town through the buildings and stories of our history, join us for a fascinating insight into Halifax's Heritage. Come for a walk with a local guide, pointing out buildings and places previously unknown to you and hearing interesting details from the Medieval, Georgian and Victorian eras through to more modern times! Learn about the philanthropists and industrialists who shaped the heritage of Halifax through generations and encounter some of the listed buildings, including the Town Hall and the Piece Hall, which they left as their legacy.

Please note that this is a circular walk, starting uphill so ensure you wear suitable footwear. Duration approximately 1½ to 2 hours. Please note any children (under 18s) booked on the tour must be accompanied by an adult with a ticket for the event and remain the responsibility of that parent/guardian at all times.

Halifax Heritage Tours CIC has been set up and is run by volunteers who are passionate about the heritage of Magic Halifax.

Monies generated by donations will be put towards community and education projects to promote and preserve the heritage of Halifax. Please note children must be accompanied by an adult.

There are a limited number of places on each tour and places can fill up quickly, so it's worth booking early!
