Harewood House is celebrating 40 years of its charitable trust with a special anniversary weekend, offering visitors the chance to explore its rich history and look ahead to its future.
Established in 1986, Harewood House Trust was created to protect and preserve the historic house, its collections, gardens and grounds for future generations.
To mark the milestone, 400 tickets will be available at 1986 prices for October 17 and 18, costing £3.50 for adults and just £1.50 for children.
The celebrations will include special tours, talks and activities, from hearing stories from Harewood’s last butler and exploring the evolution of its gardens to seeing Princess Mary’s treasured owl collection displayed together for the first time in more than a decade.
Visitors can also create their own time capsules, capturing memories and moments from the present day for future generations to discover.
Here are eight pictures showing the beauty, history and hidden details inside Harewood House.
