Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers about private tours, educational visits, events and participating in Anakron Living History.

Do you offer private tours for companies, schools or organised groups?

Yes. Private group visits may be arranged for companies, schools, community organisations and other organised groups, subject to the foundation’s availability and prior agreement.

What can a private visit include?

A visit may include an introduction to Anakron, a guided tour around the Selmun medieval-village project, historical interpretation and selected demonstrations. The programme can be discussed according to the group’s age, size and interests.

How do we request a tour or educational visit?

Use the Contact Us page and provide your preferred dates, approximate group size, age range where relevant, and the type of experience you are interested in. We will then discuss availability and suitable arrangements.

Is there a fee for private tours or group activities?

There is currently no fixed fee for private tours or group activities. However, as Anakron is a volunteer-run foundation, donations are always greatly appreciated and help support the ongoing maintenance and development of the Selmun Interpretation Centre and our living history activities. Any additional services or special requirements can be discussed and agreed upon accordingly.

Can Anakron participate in our event?

We welcome enquiries from local councils, cultural organisations, schools and private organisers. Send us the event date, location, expected audience and the type of historical activity required.

Can we visit the Selmun medieval-village project?

Visits must currently be arranged in advance. The site is an ongoing volunteer-led and self-funded project, so access and available activities can vary.

Is the site accessible to everyone?

Because the project uses an existing historic-style environment and continues to develop, accessibility can depend on the areas being used. Contact us with any mobility or access requirements before arranging a visit.

Can I become a participant?

Yes. We welcome people interested in history, research, craftsmanship, historical clothing, interpretation and performance. Contact us to learn about the participation process.

Can photographers, media or researchers contact the foundation?

Yes. Please explain your project, intended use and any deadlines through our Contact Us page so the foundation can review the request.

Still have a question?

Contact the foundation and we will be happy to discuss your enquiry.
