As part of Heritage Open Days 2026, Visit Ely is pleased to allow access for pre-booked guided tours of Ely’s Sessions House – the now ex-magistrates’ court that sits on Lynn Road and houses the City of Ely Council.

See the Courtroom and the Cells, hearing tales of what went on within these walls, all for free.

Places are strictly limited and attendees must pre-book.

Please meet your guide at the rear entrance, where you will find the disabled access.
