Journey Through the Stars at Blickling Estate

About

Inspired by the conservation of a spectacular Star Atlas from the stunning Long Gallery, this winter Blickling presents you with the stars! Explore star-filled rooms, wonder at the skies above as you discover the story of this special book.

With light installations, family fun and games and a chance to help decorate the hall, this is an opportunity to see the Star Atlas by Andreas Cellarius, a masterpiece of 17th-century Dutch mapmaking, and wonder at the creativity it has inspired.

The route through the house will take in the ground floor, basement kitchen and some of the first floor showrooms.

Enjoy a spot of Christmas shopping in the shop or pop into the second-hand bookshop in the Farmyard to browse a selection of specialist books. Tuck into delicious seasonal food and warming drinks in the Stables and Muddy Boots cafés.

10am - 3pm daily between 30 November and 5 January. House opens at 11am, last entry is at 2.30pm. Closed on 24 and 25 December.

There's no need to book tickets for your visit during these times. Entry is free to National Trust members, and standard admission apples to non-members, who can pay on arrival. Children under five go free.
