Strangers’ Hall

Strangers' Hall, Charing Cross Norwich, NR2 4AL

A hidden gem in the heart of Norwich - one of the city’s oldest and most exquisite buildings.

This beautifully preserved 14th-century house is a captivating blend of history, architecture, and charm. Named after the ‘Strangers’ – Flemish weavers who sought refuge from religious persecution in Norwich in the 16th century – Strangers’ Hall offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the city’s wealthy merchants and their families.

Wander through its maze of historic rooms, from the Tudor Great Hall to the Georgian Dining Room and the Victorian Nursery. Each space is elegantly adorned with period furnishings, intricate woodwork, and lavish décor, bringing centuries of history to life. Step outside into the tranquil walled garden, another hidden gem, where you can soak up the ambience of this remarkable house.

With its rich history and evocative stories, Strangers’ Hall is a must-visit for anyone exploring Norwich’s past.
