A trail of clues awaits in

Abbots Bromley

Legend has it that during the dissolution of the monasteries in 1545, the monks of Burton-on-Trent Abbey buried their gold and silver in Abbots Bromley to protect it from looters. They even recorded a map of potential burial spots and left clues for its location. But when the monks were finally able to return to the village, they couldn't remember where they hid the map! Recently, during restoration work on an ancient building, the precious document was discovered. Now, it's up to you - our top adventurer - to solve the clues and unearth the lost loot.

The Hunt for Treasure in Abbots Bromley

Prepare for an immersive and exciting self-guided adventure as you follow the trail through the charming village of Abbots Bromley. As you explore the historic streets and quaint buildings, keep an eye out for sneaky clues hidden in plain sight. Your journey will take you through the heart of the village, past the Butter Cross and other notable landmarks.

But be warned - this treasure hunt won't be easy. The monks were clever in their hiding of the map, and only the most skilled treasure seekers will be able to solve the clues and uncover the lost hoard.
