Visitor information
WELCOME!
All Saints’ Tudeley welcomes all visitors, whether you come to see Marc Chagall's masterworks or simply to seek the spiritual refreshment of our quiet country church. The church is normally open during daylight hours (approx 9am-4pm winter and 9am-6pm summer).
As well as hosting art works of international importance, All Saints' Tudeley remains our parish church, and we ask visitors to respect that. There are regular church services on Sundays and Monday mornings; the church may be closed without notice for weddings or funerals; concerts are often held on Saturdays.
See the calendar for more information.
Entrance charges All Saints’ Tudeley is a church and there is no charge for entrance. But maintaining our church with its unique art works costs around £200 a day, and we receive no funding either from the Church of England or from government. So we hope that visitors may like to donate £2 per person. Photographs You are welcome to take photographs: a donation to church funds would be appreciated. Coach tours Coach parties are very welcome, but contact us in advance to make a reservation - email. Also please read these special instructions for coaches.
A local guide is available to give a 20-30 minute talk to groups, telling the story of the creation and installation of the windows. For this we ask you to donate an extra £25 per group. The guides are unpaid volunteers: all proceeds go to church funds. To book, email us.
Toilets will be made available to groups when a local guide is present.
Coffee & biscuits (and sometimes ploughman's lunches!) may be available to groups: minimum 20 persons for coffee, 15 for lunch. Please ask for details.
