Guided Tour at St Augustine’s Abbey
Bring history to life with a guided tour of St Augustine’s Abbey.


Founded in AD 598 by St Augustine himself, this once-great abbey marks the rebirth of Christianity in southern England. A knowledgeable guide leads you around the site, helping you picture what the abbey looks like at its height centuries ago.

After the tour, enjoy full access to the site. Bring a picnic, relax in the grounds, and make a full day of your visit.
