Its that time of year again when historic buildings open their doors to the general public.
Heritage Open Days celebrates England’s fantastic architecture and culture by offering free access to properties that are usually closed to the public or normally charge for admission. Every year on four days in September, buildings of every age, style and function throw open their doors, ranging from castles to factories, town halls to tithe barns, parish churches to Buddhist temples. It is a once-a-year chance to discover hidden architectural treasures and enjoy a wide range of tours, events and activities which bring to life local history and culture.
To see a list of places that are open in the East Midlands see their website :

As you can see there are lots of venues open in Derbyshire to visit this weekend, some require you to book but are free.
Enjoy!
