See some of York’s most impressive sights on a walk around the historic perimeter wall that has its origins in the Roman era.

Laugh, squirm and recoil at the ghastly torture methods and grisly crimes recreated in this prison-like museum where you can immerse yourself in macabre practices and living conditions of the Middle Ages.
