Please note: Due to the popularity of the Lunt Roman Fort for school bookings, we are now fully booked until the end of July 2024.

Bookings are now being taken for September - November 2024. 

During our closed Winter season, between December – February you can book a live Q&A with our costumed Roman Soldiers, who will interact and answer your pupils questions via an entertaining and informative 45 minute zoom session. For further information please visit: Online Q&A for Schools — Lunt Roman Fort

Alternatively, make the most of our virtual schools programme, which includes a highly interactive and fun experience for pupils to learn about the Lunt Roman Fort directly in your classroom setting on the Coventry Museums website.

We have £100 bursaries available to schools with high pupil premium to subsidise the cost of our virtual membership scheme. If you have any questions please do get in touch via info@cvlife.co.uk.

School Visits

The Lunt is an excellent example of an early Roman fort and is the only reconstructed Roman cavalry fort in Britain. Based on the archaeological evidence on site, the Lunt's imposing wooden gateway and ramparts have been reconstructed to create a glimpse into the history of Roman Britain. 

Educational visits to the Lunt are tailored to the Key Stage 2 History curriculum, supporting your study of the Roman Empire and its impact on Britain.  

The Lunt is open on weekdays for pre-booked visits only. We are closed from early December and normally reopen after the February half term holiday.  

Our teachers’ resource pack complements the facilitated sessions with suggestions for pre or post visit cross-curricular activities. You can download it from the 'Following in the Footsteps of Soldiers' page. available here.
