Visit the Tourist Information Centre and maritime displays at the Custom House to find out more about the host of places such as True’s Yard Fisherfolk Museum and nearby St Nicholas’ Chapel, Lynn Museum, King’s Lynn Minster, Marriott’s Warehouse, Greyfriars Tower and Gardens or the classic 18th century town park known as ‘The Walks’ where you can indulge yourself in discovering more of King’s Lynn’s rich history and heritage. A great place to start your visit is the iconic Custom House with its elegant rooms, views of the river and displays that tell of the famous mariners of Lynn - including Vancouver and Nelson - as well as its merchants, customs men and smugglers. For those who cannot resist a tipple from Norfolk or further afield be sure to try Beers Of Europe, purveyors of the best selection of global beers, wines and ciders in the UK. King’s Lynn is a shopper’s paradise. As you stroll through the cobbled streets you’ll find large brand names at every turn. The Vancouver Quarter is the main hub for national retailers and has established itself as the town’s destination for shopping, dining and entertainment. Throughout the year it holds regular promotions, events and fun days for visitors.
