On Screen at Calke Abbey

Calke Abbey has taken its place on the big screen in 'Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man' – and now you can discover how it happened. Explore the spaces used in the production – from Tommy Shelby’s dramatic walk through the Stableyards to the atmospheric rooms inside the House transformed for the screen. Discover how outdoor spaces and historic interiors were dressed to create mood and meaning, how the cast and crew worked within this fragile setting, and how the production team worked carefully with the team at Calke to protect its historic fabrics and collections while bringing scenes to life. You can also follow our downloadable walking trail across the estate to see these locations for yourself. It highlights key places where filming took place and offers behind-the-scenes insights for fans of the series and anyone curious about filming in heritage places. Whether you watched the film or are intrigued by how historic houses become film sets, this is your chance to see Calke through a different lens. Don't forget to check back in October for details of a brand new, behind-the-scenes tour of the House, exploring some of the rooms and spaces used for filming.

History & Heritage

Local Treasure, Global Connections: Museum Room Display

Discover this year's Museum Room display and take a closer look at Calke’s State Bed hangings. Still in near- perfect condition, these Chinese silk hangings are a treasure of the National Trust, even featuring in the book '125 Treasures of the National Trust'. Rich in symbolism, Chinese art is more than just decorative - the display encourages visitors to explore the images in the hangings and the meanings behind them.
