Take a closer look around the outside of the castle and you’ll spot some fascinating stone creatures watching from above — grotesques and gargoyles!
But, do you know the difference between them?
Join us for a hands-on creative adventure where you’ll uncover the mystery behind these quirky characters. Then, roll up your sleeves and sculpt your very own from clay!
Will your creation be a fearsome gargoyle or a wonderfully weird grotesque or even make your own dragon? The choice is yours… let your imagination run wild!
