This Heritage Open Days weekend, explore Eltham Palace through the eyes of the people who kept it running. Our new Servants’ Trail reveals fascinating stories of cooks, cleaners, secretaries, and gardeners - people often left out of palace histories.

Step inside history from a different perspective this Heritage Open Days weekend at Eltham Palace. Discover our brand-new Servants’ Trail, an immersive journey that brings to life the stories of the cooks, cleaners, secretaries, and gardeners who kept the palace running behind the scenes.

Through carefully chosen objects and real-life accounts, this trail uncovers the often-overlooked voices of those who shaped daily life at the palace. Wander through the house and experience Eltham Palace not as its owners did, but through the eyes of the people who made it all possible.

*Last entry one hour before closing. The house will be closed at 12pm on Saturday 19th September.
