This splendid medieval Palace has been the home of the Bishops of Bath and Wells for 800 years. The gardens contain the springs from which the city takes its name. The gardens at the Bishop's Palace are a haven of tranquillity and peace. Visitors are free to wander over the lawns past flower-beds, specimen trees and shrubs. Visitors can also see the Bishop's private Chapel, ruined Great Hall and the Gatehouse with portcullis and drawbridge. The famous mute swans drift across the moat to ring a bell for food.
