Explore the museum and search for the castle's prickly hedgehog friends hiding in our galleries. Enter our competition for a chance to be the lucky winner of a goody bag of great souvenirs. There's hedgehog crafts for £1.50 and free activity sheets to enjoy. Discover lots of fun hedgehog facts too. Did you know that hedgehogs sleep in specially built nests made of leaves? From late December until late March most hedgehogs hibernate but some hibernate earlier or later and some not at all!
We look forward to seeing you soon.
