If you have 2-3 hours to spend in the beautiful town of Lincoln, here are some suggestions:
- Lincoln Cathedral: One of the most iconic landmarks in the town, the Cathedral houses stunning architecture and is steeped in history. Entry is free, but donations are welcome. Allow at least 1 hour for a visit.
- The Collection: A museum featuring archaeology, fine art, and costume collections from Lincoln and the surrounding area. Entry is also free, and it takes around an hour to explore the museum.
- Lincoln Castle: Another iconic landmark in Lincoln, the castle offers magnificent views of the town and fascinating exhibits on history and archaeology. Entry fees apply, with prices starting at £8 for adults. Plan to spend at least an hour and a half here.
- Steep Hill: For those who enjoy a bit of exercise, Steep Hill is a cobbled street that takes you from the town centre up to the Cathedral and Castle. There are many small independent shops, cafes, and restaurants along the way. It should take about 20-30 minutes to climb the hill.
These are just a few suggestions, but there's plenty to see and explore in Lincoln. You could also take a stroll around the town centre and browse the shops and cafes if you have some extra time.
