An Adventure Through One of England’s Best-Preserved Medieval Towns

Tewkesbury is a town where history seems to appear on almost every corner. Crooked medieval buildings. Narrow historic streets. A magnificent abbey towering above the town.

But hidden among these famous sights are curious details, forgotten stories, and surprising clues just waiting to be discovered. The Tewkesbury X Hunt transforms this historic Gloucestershire town into a self-guided outdoor puzzle adventure. Solve clever clues, uncover fascinating history, and explore Tewkesbury in a way that’s far more fun than simply wandering around with a guidebook.

It’s part treasure hunt, part walking tour, part escape room and part puzzle challenge.

Tewkesbury is one of the best-preserved medieval towns in England, and its history stretches back many centuries. During the hunt you’ll uncover clues connected to:

  • The town’s medieval past

  • Famous historic events

  • Beautiful timber-framed buildings

  • The many alleyways
