The Cathedral is more than 900 years old and there are lots of exciting things waiting to be discovered!
Flint the Fox has stepped out of the stonework of Norwich Cathedral to help children find out more about the amazing stories they can explore here.
Pick up a free Follow the Fox trail leaflet or borrow an Explorer Backpack during your visit.
For generations Flint has been quietly hidden within the ancient architecture of Norwich Cathedral.
When you visit, you will find Flint peeking out from one of the archways at the east end of the Cathedral.

Pick up a free Follow the Fox trail leaflet from our welcome desk and let Flint take you on a journey around the Cathedral!
This free trail points out 10 highlights ranging from the Cathedral’s mighty organ to the stunning Trinity Windows which cast a kaleidoscope of colourful light onto the Cathedral’s walls.
It's a great trail for all the family!

Children aged five to 11 years old can enjoy finding out more about Norwich Cathedral with the help of our free Explorer Backpacks and another trail led by Flint!
The bags are packed full of items to help children engage with the Cathedral, including a set of binoculars, a torch, magnifying glass, compass, tape measure and mirror, plus a pencil to help them complete a special trail.
Young explorers who complete their quest receive a free gift when they return their Explorer Backpacks.

The backpacks are free to borrow and can be collected from the Cathedral's Welcome Desk. At the end of your visit they should be returned to the Cathedral Shop, where young explorers who have completed their quest will receive a free gift.
We look forward to welcoming you and your little ones to explore the Cathedral!
Please be aware we have a limited stock of Explorer Backpacks and so are unable to offer them on particularly busy days such as school visits and family fun days.
