Get creative with our master builders and help us bring history to life with LEGO® bricks.

Become a budding gardener and help us to design a garden fit to woo a queen as we travel back to Elizabeth I's visit to Kenilworth Castle. What will you add to help Robert Dudley win the Queen's heart?

We're turning the castle’s Elizabethan Gardens into brick art! Join us to recreate the beautiful gardens to be placed beneath the queen's private apartments, just like Robert Dudley once did for Elizabeth I. Once you've worked your magic, our brick builders will put your creations together, creating an amazing mini version of the gardens.

NEW FOR 2025 - Help us to decorate the Queen’s dress! Come along to see our 60cm high figure of Queen Elizabeth I made from LEGO® Bricks and have a go at decorating part of her dress.
