The Auckland Project
At the heart of our sites is St Peter's Chapel, in

Auckland Castle:

the home of the Prince Bishops, and the historic seat of faith and power in the North of England.

The experience across our sites is deeply linked to those two themes of faith and power - they are repeated throughout the Castle and Faith Museum, the Mining Art Gallery and the Spanish Gallery.

The collection of our venues, spaces and places invite conversations about belonging, faith, loss, sacrifice, community, love and creativity.

We would like our guests to explore:
to discover things about our town, our country and their own lives. We want to create memorable and transformative encounters - and need your help to do so.
