Overview

Longthorpe Tower displays one of the most complete sets of 14th century domestic wall paintings in northern Europe. This varied 'spiritual encyclopaedia' of worldly and religious subjects includes the Wheel of Life, the Nativity and King David. The Tower is a surviving part of a 14th century fortified Manor House and now also contains a small hands-on exhibition on the story of the Tower, the wall paintings and life in a medieval manor house.
