Spectacular 18th-century mansion with Adam interiors and parkland
From end of Tuesday 24 March, we closed all our car parks to further restrict the spread of coronavirus. This followed the decision to close our parks and gardens in addition to our houses, shops and cafes. We urge people to stay local and observe social distancing. Please do not travel.
Take a trip back in time to the 1760s at this spectacular Neo-classical mansion framed by historic parkland.
Designed for lavish entertaining and displaying an extensive collection of paintings, sculpture and original furnishings, Kedleston is a stunning example of the work of architect Robert Adam.
The Curzon family have lived here since the 12th-century and continue to live at the Hall. Lord Curzon's Eastern Museum is a treasure trove of fascinating objects acquired on his travels in Asia and while Viceroy of India (1899 to 1905).
The Hall was used as a key location for 'The Duchess', the Hollywood blockbuster starring Keira Knightley.
Don’t miss…
• The long and short walks, offering beautiful vistas of the Kedleston Hall Park Land.
• Locations where Keira Knightley starred in ‘The Duchess’.
• Sections of the neo-classical mansion inspired by famous Roman architecture.
