Hoogtepunten

The ruins of Whitby Abbey crown a clifftop over the historic fishing port of Whitby. The headland has hosted St Hild’s Anglo-Saxon monastery, the great medieval abbey and a Stuart mansion, and it’s long been the focus of myths and legends. You can find out more about the headland’s people and stories in the big Whitby Abbey museum, packed with objects and stories. Listening posts, peep-holes and animations tell the headland’s many tales: how St Hild turned snakes to stone, how Anglo-Saxon Caedmon became a poet, how the lost abbey bells are still heard beneath the waves, and how a real shipwreck helped inspire Dracula, which in turn has made Whitby the ‘Goth capital’ of England.

Route

  1. For nearly 700 years, the splendid 13th-century Gothic abbey has towered high above Whitby. Today you can take in wonderful views of the coastline and town while you explore the abbey’s extensive remains. The visitor centre at Whitby Abbey is housed in a 17th-century mansion. Inside you’ll find a museum that tells the 3,000-year-long story of the abbey with the help of objects like Anglo-Saxon crosses, medieval manuscripts and even a rare, signed copy of Bram Stoker’s novel ‘Dracula’.

About Middlesbrough

Middlesbrough is a Teesside town on the River Tees, built on iron and steel, with a famous transporter bridge and the North York Moors close behind.

Middlesbrough lies on the south bank of the River Tees in north-east England, historically in Yorkshire. It grew from a farm into a major ironworking town in the nineteenth century after ironstone was found in the Cleveland Hills, and its bridge-building firms worked on the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Tyne Bridge.
