Women's History Tour (Staff and Students, English Language)

Home to the main University Campus, as well as Government buildings, City Hall and institutions such as National Museum Cardiff, it is an area known for its dazzling white buildings and its association with the ‘great and the good’ of the city’s past – mostly men on plinths with big moustaches.

However, look closely, and you’ll see that women’s history is everywhere, woven into the fabric of our public spaces. From activists to scientists, musicians to militant suffragettes – this tour brings together a snapshot of women’s history in Cardiff.

This is a step-free tour lasting around 60 minutes at a leisurely pace.

English language tour will depart at 12pm. The tour will depart from outside the main entrance, Cardiff University, Main Building, Park Place side. We will briefly venture off the path, so do wear suitable shoes.

This tour is open to staff and students at Cardiff's universities - check out our Eventbrite page for public events.
