Situated on the route of York's famous walls walk, Micklegate Bar Museum has stood sentinel to the city for over 800 years.
As York's most important gateway, the bar has served a number of important roles since its construction in the 12th century, including being the main point of entry through which a reigning monarch enters the city.
Visit the ancient gateway to explore the pageantry and barbaric history that has unfolded between these walls through the centuries.
