"One of the best family day outs. No other experience gets you as close to the excitement of archaeological discovery. It's unique!" Dan Snow

Owned by the same archaeologists who created JORVIK Viking Centre after discovering the Viking-Age City of Jorvik, DIG offers you a unique archaeological adventure to get you on your way to becoming a real archaeologist. This is a one of a kind! So…………….
DIG IT!
SHAKE IT!
SEE IT!
FEEL IT!
FIND IT!

DISCOVER DIG! What will you find?

At DIG you get to discover only the most exciting archaeological artefacts from 2000 years of history hidden under the streets of York. Our excavation pits are filled with Roman, Viking, medieval and Victorian finds, so you can grab a trowel and dig up the clues that show how people lived in these times.

Visitors then go on to examine real archaeological finds and work out what they were used for. Look out for the 1000 year old skulls and the Viking-Age Poo!
