Heritage Pathway trip: Behind the Scenes at Blenheim Palace
Blenheim Palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only non-Royal palace in England. Built by the Dukes of Marlborough in the 18th century, it is considered the finest example of Baroque architecture in the UK.
Researchers at Oxford have been working with Blenheim to help tackle the major challenges facing the site today, including responses to climate change and shifting audience needs and expectations. Join us for this behind-the-scenes visit where we will explore the site's many layers, hear from Blenheim staff and Oxford researchers working on the collaboration, and find out more about learning and engagement opportunities at this leading heritage attraction.
We will be meeting at the Keble Road bus top on Banbury Road at 9.10am. We are planning to be back in Oxford at approximately 4.30pm.
Please note, this visit requires a £20 deposit which will be refunded once you have attended the course, or have cancelled your place at least 72 hours before the course start date.
