Shakespeare's Birthplace

Visit Shakespeare's Birthplace - William Shakespeare's childhood home in the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon. Hear stories from Shakespeare's family life and get up close to objects from the Trust's world-class collections as you discover how the extraordinary playwright continues to shape our lives today.John Shakespeare - William's father - lived and worked in the house now known as Shakespeare's birthplace. John married Mary Arden in about 1557 and William was born in 1564, the third of their eight children.

In 1568, John became mayor of Stratford, the city's highest elected office. Due to his father's status as mayor, William was privileged to attend the local high school to begin his education. In 1582, at the age of 18, William married Anne Hathaway. The young couple continued to live with their parents in their birthplace. Her own children Susanna, Judith and Hamnet were born here.

John Shakespeare died in 1601 and William inherited the house as the eldest surviving son. William leased the small two-room cottage next to the main house to his sister Joan Hart. The remainder of the family home was also leased out and converted into an inn called the Maidenhead.

It was later renamed the Swan and Maidenhead Inn, which remained in operation until 1847. When Shakespeare died in 1616, he left the estate to his elder daughter Susanna, and when she died, she left it to her only child, Elizabeth. Although she married twice, Elizabeth had no children. When she died in 1670, the house passed to a descendant of Joan Hart.

The Hart family owned the property until 1806, when it was sold to Thomas Court, a butcher. After the death of Court's widow, the entire property was put up for sale in 1846.

To save the building where William Shakespeare was born, a public campaign was launched, supported by Charles Dickens. The property was auctioned off by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust in 1847 for £3,000. We've been taking care of it ever since.
