London, City of Alchemy: a walking tour - Paul Ferguson - 05-11-2026
When: Thursday 18 June, 11.30am to 1pm
About this tour:
London was not only built in stone and gold: it was shaped by centuries of obsession with transformation.
This walking tour explores the hidden alchemical imagination of the City: the pursuit of the philosopher’s stone, the dream of turning base matter into perfection, and the early scientific and spiritual ideas that helped shape modern London. Moving through historic streets and buildings, we will uncover how architecture, commerce, belief, and experimentation intersected in a world where the boundaries between mysticism and science were far more fluid than we might expect.
