York Castle Museum Named Little Vikings ‘Best Attraction’

18 January 2016

York Castle Museum has been awarded the highest honour in a vote of best tourist attractions in York, by a local family-friendly magazine.

The museum has been announced as Best Attraction in the 2016 Little Vikings awards, as voted by its readers.

Thousands of people voted across a number of award categories with York Castle Museum scooping the top honour as the best attraction.

The museum was also highly commended in the category on Best Gory Experience, narrowly missing out on the award.

Little Vikings launched in 2013 and is a bi-monthly magazine that reaches over 15,000 families each issue, aimed at parents and carers of 0-11 year olds living in and visiting York.
