Exeter’s Underground Passages
Exeter’s Underground Passages: Take a tour in medieval subterranean passageways that used to transport water under the city centre.
Dating back to the 14th century, these medieval passages under Exeter High Street represent a unique ancient monument. They were built to house the pipes that brought fresh water to the city and today visitors can enjoy guided tours of this fascinating attraction that takes you underneath the heart of Exeter.
