Tuesday, 29 July — Private visit to the Society of Antiquaries

Founded in 1707, the Society of Antiquaries is a learned society of historians and archaeologists. Our behind-the-scenes guided tour of their Burlington House property will include the library of more than 100,000 titles dating from the 1470s to the present day.

We will see some of the 50 incunables – books printed before 1501. At the time of our visit a copy of the Magna Carta will be on display.
