For 80 years, York Civic Trust has championed the heritage that makes this city extraordinary.

Founded in 1946, we are a membership charity dedicated to protecting York’s historic places, encouraging thoughtful development, and celebrating the stories that define this city.

Through our Blue Plaque programme, our award-winning Georgian townhouse museum Fairfax House, and an annual programme of events, we help people see the city differently.

By becoming a member, you’ll help safeguard the city you love and enjoy special access to the best of York.
