WW1 Guided Walks 13 September and 13 November 2022.
Book your tickets below.
Volunteer led guided walks focusing on those soldiers commemorated at Willesden Cemetery who lost their lives during WW1.
Led by our wonderful volunteer guides, every stop along the way will introduce visitors to stories of those soldiers who gave their lives to the cause. Each story is unique, tragic and fascinating, with each offering a different insight into what it was like to serve in WW1 and WW2.
Guided walks will start in the visitor centre and last for about 75 minutes. We recommend you leave some time before or afterward to pop into our Visitor Centre and funerary buildings.
A limited amount of parking is available on site.
Wheelchairs can be provided upon request.
No dogs, with the exception of guide dogs.
Our guided walks are £10 to join, with a concession for Seniors and Students of £8. Charging for guided walks allows us to do what we do best - sustaining the new House of Life visitor experience and making the cemetery’s heritage and stories accessible to people from all backgrounds.
