Join Abney Park Trust for a night walk to encounter the bats who are just one of the many species of wildlife who reside in our nature reserve.
To celebrate 186 years since the foundation stone for the Chapel was laid and the cemetery was opened in May 1840, members of the Tower Theatre will be in the cemetery to bring some of Abney’s amazing residents to life. Once you have picked up a map from the main entrance, stroll around the site - who knows who’ll turn up from the past to tell their story?
Occurring on the first Sunday of every month and led by Abney Park Trust, this tour focuses on Abney Park's uniqueness – from its diverse permanent residents to the striking funerary architecture, as well as its historic dual function as both burial ground and arboretum since it opened in 1840.
Join Abney Unearthed for a tour held in recognition of War Graves Week and VE Day. Learn more about the lives of those who died in service who are buried in Abney Park - including those with Commonwealth War Grave Commission memorial stones and those commemorated on the headstone of their family grave.

A film by Elin Moe and Winstan Whitter, How To Get On with Everybody is an intimate portrait of the unique life of Herschel Gluck, a Rabbi from the Haredi Jewish community. One of life's true optimists in a time of global tension, Rabbi Gluck reminds us that power lies in empathy and in our shared humanity.
