Guided Tour of Carn Euny Fogou

Carn Euny, near Penzance, is an Iron Age settlement whose stone-built remains have stood for more than two thousand years. This free guided tour takes you through the village and into its fogou — a mysterious underground stone-lined chamber whose purpose archaeologists still debate. Expect to walk among the old courtyard houses and hear about the people who once lived here, before ducking into the cool darkness of the fogou itself. A good fit for anyone with a curiosity about Cornwall's deep past, whether you're a local or visiting the far west. Wear sensible shoes and bring a layer — the fogou is underground and will be cold whatever the weather.
