MINI Golf is set to return to the historic grounds of one of Worcester's oldest buildings.

The Commandery will be opening its doors to a friendly bit of competition with a nine-hole mini golf course.

Helen Manning, Events and Activities Coordinator at The Commandery says: “We love bringing mini golf to The Commandery’s gardens every year – it’s a beautiful setting for it!”

The event is set to take place on Saturday, June 17, between 10am and 4pm and a round of mini-golf is estimated to take around 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the team. 

The Commandery is home to the interactive exhibition Worcester’s Civil War Story, where the building became famous for its role as a Royalist headquarters in the final fight of the English Civil War at the Battle of Worcester in 1651.

The rest of the gardens – including the nature play area and mud kitchen – and The Commandery building can be explored before or after the game.

Admission to The Commandery applies and it is an extra £3 per person for mini golf.

There is free admission to The Commandery for those with a season or Worcester Residents’ pass and day tickets can be upgraded when you visit.
