The Old Crown is a striking building rich in history and character and is one of a few remaining examples of Birmingham s medieval past.
It has seen off Civil War soldiers Victorian town planners and German bombs! The building is a Grade II listed building and was built circa 1368. It dates from the Tudor period and was one of Birmingham s very first school buildings. In 1575 The Old Crown received a very famous visitor. . . Queen Elizabeth I rested here on her way home after attending a party at Kenilworth Castle. During the English Civil War the Old Crown was the last standing building to hold out against the infamous Prince Rupert and his army. . . the event subsequently labelled the Birmingham Butcheries . Over the years town planners wanted to demolish the building but it was saved many times by Joshua Toulmin Smith. It is believed that every room has a tale to tell and it is said that the Old Crown is haunted by not one but two ghosts! Ask our staff for some of the building s spooky tales. br / br / br / br / The Old Crown is located only half a mile from the city centre making it perfect for anyone travelling for work wanting to visit the Bullring (our proud shopping complex) see our sights or just for a break.
