Immerse yourself in centuries of history at one of York's most iconic sites and experience stunning views over the ancient city.
Built to subdue the rebellious north by William the Conqueror, Clifford’s Tower has been a royal mint, a medieval stronghold and a Civil War garrison. In 1190, one of the worst antisemitic massacres of the Middle Ages took place on the site of the tower when York’s Jewish community were trapped there by a violent mob and many Jews chose to commit suicide rather than be murdered.
Today, a new roof deck gives unrivalled views over York's historic skyline, with its medieval buildings and famous Minster. Inside, new walkways and staircases have opened up parts of the tower that have been off-limits for centuries, and immersive soundscapes and stories are bringing the tower’s turbulent history to life like never before.

Originally built in the 13th century, there was St. Martin's Church, which was left after destroying the church when the need for road expansion emerged due to increased traffic in the late 19th century. The clock installed in the tower rings at 15 minutes per hour.
