Peace
Trail

The Leeds Peace Trail is a walking tour around Leeds city centre, telling a range of fascinating stories of peace and peace-making – each connected with people, groups and places in the city, past and the present.

T4P, Leeds City Council & The Peace Museum have picked a range of sites of historic interest, each with a story that raises awareness of timeless issues such as war, immigration, equality, nuclear effects, human rights, apartheid, violent crime, destitution, and campaigning.

To view the map online, click here. Free printed maps are also available from Leeds Tourist Centre or Leeds Central Library (while stocks last).

There is a long route (allow 2 hours 30 mins) and a short one (allow 1 hour 30 mins). To download audio versions of the stories (for podcasting etc), click here to download the long route, and here for the short one. (Big thanks to our volunteers for producing this podcast.)

Finally, if you have any comments on or proposed additions for this project, we’d love to hear from you.
