Bury St Edmunds - discover more than 1,000 years of history
Wherever you are in the beautiful market town of Bury St Edmunds, reminders of the past are just around the corner.
Immerse yourself in 1,000 years of history, exploring picturesque Georgian squares, wonderful medieval architecture and the legend of Saint Edmund and the wolf.
From saints to queens and brewing to Charles Dickens, its impressive historical connections earn Bury St Edmunds its title as 'a jewel in the crown of Suffolk', witnessing intrigue, scandal and greatness in equal measure.
Admire Suffolk’s only Cathedral and stand among the ruins of the 11th Century Benedictine Abbey, once a place of pilgrimage and one of the most important monasteries in medieval Europe, now nestled in the stunning award-winning Abbey Gardens in the historic heart of the town.
Take in the grandeur of The Athenaeum which once played host to performances and readings from such literary legends as Charles Dickens and W M Thackeray.
Experience going to the theatre as it was in pre-Victorian times at the Theatre Royal, the only surviving regency playhouse in Britain.
Enjoy the many walking trails to discover the Lark and Linnet rivers and the Magna Carta, and uncover the legacy of some of the most influential talents to have graced Bury St Edmunds in the town's Blue Plaque Trail which takes you to the homes and haunts of an eclectic mix of historical figures including author Charles Dickens.
Among the many unique features of Bury St Edmunds is that almost every major junction into town has extraordinary modern artworks which mark key moments in its history. From the dramatic steel figure of St Edmund to the uplifting dove of peace - check out Bury St Edmunds roundabout art!

Aldeburgh, a lovely seaside town that overlooks the ocean in the north; Bury St.Edmunds and its cathedral where he signed the Magna Carta; Lavenham with The Crooked House tea room so picturesque as old; Monks Eleigh with its quaint cottages and the old church. In all this has never lacked the beer.

Trailer 3: Why does in situ: perform King Lear in Wandlebury Country Park, Cambridge?
- Shakespeare's greatest tragedy: an aged king gives away his kingdom and begins a harrowing journey of loss and displacement - loss of home, self-esteem and finally sanity.
With its famous scenes of storms and wilderness and its extremes of human suffering and cruelty, King Lear was described by A.C. Bradley as being too huge for the stage.
In Wandlebury Country Park, with its Iron-Age fort, woods and meadows, in situ: has found a setting of a scale and diversity to match this extraordinary play.
A remarkable walkaround performance that maps its hero's spiritual journey from civilisation to destitution, in situ:'s King Lear follows the enormous success of Metamorphoses, performed on the same site in 2007 and 2008. A weird and wonderful rite... Brilliant (Hunts Post)
