Join us on a tour of the Wedgwood Factory for a behind-the-scenes experience where we reveal how Wedgwood is designed, created and crafted.
This is the place to discover the craftsmanship of our famous jasperware, a unique invention by Josiah Wedgwood I. Marvel at the extraordinary skills of our talented workers who cast, glaze, decorate and gild in our original 1940s working factory.
- The Factory closes during Easter week, the August bank holiday and Christmas.
- A walking guided tour takes approximately 45 minutes. There is no seating along the way, however, the route is wheelchair-friendly and wheelchairs or folding seats can be reserved from reception.
- The tour includes visual displays such as film, written interpretation, audio, as well as viewing the factory at work.
