About

Uncover the amazing artefacts and hidden secrets behind Essex's most significant archaeological discovery, the Prittlewell Princely Burial, after hours at Southend Central Museum.

Join us after hours at Southend Central Museum on 19 June, as part of our 'museum lates' event series. Explore the internationally significant 'The Prittlewell Princley Burial' exhibition with a complementary glass of wine, before digging deeper into the history and mystery of the artefacts by expert Robert Sharp.

In this month's talk, hear the amazing story of how the Anglo Saxon burial was found after being hidden for 1500 years, get a closer look at the treasures that were uncovered and try to answer the question 'who actually was the Prittlewell Prince'?

Doors open at 6pm, with half an hour for exploring the museum. The talk begins at 6:30pm, and the event finishes by 8pm.

Prebooking is essential. This event is 18+ only. FAQs below.
