Free guided tour of Morrab Library
Morrab Library is one of Penzance's hidden gems — a subscription library founded in 1818, packed with rare books, journals, and local archive material that rarely gets the attention it deserves. Every Friday afternoon, the library opens its doors for a free guided tour, giving you the chance to explore the collection and learn about the building's history from someone who knows it well. Whether you're a long-time Penzance resident who's walked past a hundred times or a visitor curious about Cornwall's literary past, this is a welcoming and unhurried way to spend a Friday afternoon.
