Can you solve the crime?

For Goldfest 2010, the Royal Mews is proud to present: The Falconer's Knot, a medieval murder mystery starring...YOU!

The year is 1171 and you - esteemed Doctor of Medicine and Investigator of Death - have been ordered by King Henry II to solve a murder at the Royal Mews in Winchester. Are you up to the challenge? You'd best hope you are, for King Henry's temper is legendary and if you should fail to find the culprit in time, His Majesty may very well order that your head be separated from your shoulders!

Are you brave enough to take on the job? If you are, then click on the plaque above to get started!




Welcome to the Mews!

King Henry II has graciously granted access to his Royal Mews and we do hope you will tarry awhile and visit with us.

If you click on the diminutive version of Emma to the left, she will lead you on a tour of the mews. Perhaps you'd like to take a quick look around before you start solving the mystery? Or, if you would prefer something more leisurely, you can visit our new Treasury and see the precious objects on display.
