Palaces to visit Wells

Bishop's Palace dates back to the 13th century and has been modified many times over the centuries. It is the residence of the Bishop of Bath and Wells, who still lives within the walls of the north wing today. The building is open to visitors and it is interesting to discover its rich history and varied architectural styles. A special feature is that the swans in the gardens have been trained to ring the bell when they are hungry and are fed with wholemeal bread! A nice visit to make with the family.
