Eastbridge Hospital
We visited the Eastbridge Hospital and Franciscans Gardens on the same ticket and really enjoyed these little gems

An interesting museum for half an hour
We came to this small museum which has some very interesting architecture especially the crypt and amazing wooden rafters as well as medieval wall paintings. There is some information in each room. Allow half an hour or so for your visit. I think there may be tours available but we went around on our own.

Interesting gem, great tour!
We went to the Alms House because we’re both interested in history and it was really great! We had a tour from lovely John (a VOLUNTEER who knew everything and gave up his time for us), and we went round with a family with children who were suitably entertained by the stories (including ghost stories!). It’s not a large place but well worth a tour round - took about 40 minutes. Ask for John!

Step Back in Time
I love history, so this hit the spot but it doesn't take an hour to see and read everything. However, it dies give a feel of the hardships of pilgrims even with the kindness of the hospital.

Fascinating History
The Eastbridge Hospital is an amazing building set over the river & next to the beautiful Franciscan Gardens - well worth visiting at the same time. Very knowledgeable guides

Great value for money
I visited recently, lovely old building, had a tour with a very delightful girl called Angel, she was very informative with the history of the old pilgrims hospital Very enjoyable and definitely recommend a visit to both the east Bridge hospital and franciscan garden.

Stunning look into the history of Canterbury’s pilgrims
Fascinating experience, from the lower floor where pilgrims once slept to the upper floor chapel! It has been kept in remarkable condition and the mural on the middle floor is a MUST-SEE for history buffs!

Fascinating historical hostelry since 1190!
We arrived close to closing time so sadly rushed our visit but what an amazing place The restoration of this ancient building is wonderful Historically a true haven for weary travellers offered by The Franciscan order Now an almshouse offering accommodation to the elderly and needy Can’t recommend too highly … Very lovely and helpful guides
