Self-guided audio tour of 15 historic landmarks on Lincoln's High Street, narrated through the free AudaTours app.
Lincoln Audio Tour: A Timeless Journey Through History is running along High Street on Tuesday 24 November, from 12:00 to 20:00. It's a self-guided audio tour rather than a walk with a live guide, so you set your own pace and take it in whenever suits you best.
The route follows the ancient streets of Lincoln, where royal prisons once echoed with secrets beneath soaring stone spires and rebels and kings traded power. It takes you from the fortress to the cathedral, stopping at 15 landmarks including Lincoln Castle, Lincoln Cathedral, Lincoln Museum, Jews' Court and Steep Hill, threading together the political intrigue, defiance and devotion that shaped the kingdom. At each stop, you'll get narrated history and the scandals that went with it.
Because it's self-guided, you'll need the free AudaTours app on your smartphone, and the audio works offline, so you don't have to worry about your signal dropping as you move. The walk covers about 4.1 km (2.5 miles) and takes around an hour and 37 minutes if you're moving at a steady clip, though you can stop and linger wherever you like. One thing to keep in mind is that it doesn't include entry to any of the buildings, so you'll be seeing the landmarks from the outside rather than heading inside.
