About The Assembly House

The Assembly House is a Georgian Grade I listed building located in Norwich, United Kingdom. Today, the Assembly House is used for conferences, exhibitions, visual and performing arts activities, and weddings, and is owned by a registered charity dedicated to the arts.

The origins of the Assembly House date back to 1248 when John Le Brun founded The Chapel and Hospice of St Mary's in the Field, a hospital dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, on the site.


In 2025, the venue hosted a concert as part of the touring Kala Festival, featuring artists including Pandit Debasis Chakroborty (Indian Slide Guitar), Ustad Akram Khan (Tabla), and Raga Pianist Deepak Shah.[1] It is one of the twelve historic Norwich buildings in the Norwich 12 initiative, a project aimed at developing an integrated group of heritage attractions in the city.
