About
It’s great to wind down with a board game. The Romans thought so too!
Join Castleford Museum for some (very) old-fashioned board games and learn to play the ancient Roman way.
Explore our real Roman game pieces on display – can you work out what they are made of?
Make your own boards and counters to take home and play again and again!
*Friday 1 November is a relaxed SEND session for Roman Board Games. SEND families are welcome at all of Wakefield Museums & Castles’ sessions. Castleford Museum are also running this session for groups that prefer a more relaxed atmosphere.
All sessions free and no booking required.
