Join the museum inspector on a guided tour through the history of Christmas and discover how the festive season was celebrated over 200 years ago, compared with today.
The tour looks at the ancient roots of many Christmas customs, from why pork, rice porridge and browned potatoes are eaten on Christmas Eve, to the origins of Christmas beer, the Christmas ghost and the Christmas seal, and the age of the Christmas tree. You will also hear why Christmas falls where it does in the calendar.
