Discover how the historic sites of Wells, including Wells Cathedral, The Bishop’s Palace, Wells & Mendip Museum and Wells Town Hall, are connected to British slavery. Our building pages highlight treasured places and belongings, such as paintings, stained-glass windows and chandeliers, that all have visible connections to the enslavement of Africans.

If you are planning a visit to Wells the ‘self-guided trail’ leaflet is available in the ‘open to the public’ sites (marked with a key symbol) or it can be downloaded here.
