About This Event

This guided tour examines Blickling Estate from a worldwide viewpoint. It is intended for adults wishing to deepen their knowledge of the estate's history.

Discover Blickling Estate through a global lens on this engaging guided tour, designed for adults keen to deepen their understanding of its history. Explore the estate's rich international connections to India, America, Japan, France, Italy, Russia and Ireland, and uncover how global trade, travel and cultural exchange have shaped Blickling and its collections.

Learn how international collector Karun Thakar drew inspiration from Blickling's global stories to create Journeys - a personal exploration of the global country house, showcasing textiles from around the world from his private collection.

Led by curator Megan Dennis, this thought-provoking tour invites visitors to reflect on shared histories and consider the many ways Blickling is connected to people and places across the globe.
