Ancient Weekends: a chance to taste and smell the past!

Ancient Weekends at the Ancient Technology Centre are an ideal family day out in Dorset. They blend fun, living history, traditional crafts and skills, with hands on activities to excite children and inform visitors of all ages.

Bring a picnic or enjoy locally sourced foods, home made cake and delicious tea and coffee in the beautiful and timeless setting of this unique open air museum.

Unfortunately no dogs are allowed on site.

We are only open to the public on these event days. The rest of the time the site is only available to educational groups.
