The iconic Old Gaol at the heart of the charming market town of Buckingham. With our stout castle walls built back in 1748, our building oozes character, inside and out.
Explore the cells where poachers, drunks and even the odd murderer were banged up. Find out who managed to escape, and how. Enjoy our museum exhibits taking in two millennia of local history, from the time of the dinosaurs to the 1980s.
All are welcome. We promise we won’t lock you up!
