If you couldn’t at some point at your life fall asleep because you needed to find out what happened to Jane Eyre or Catherine, then you simply can’t skip this piece of world literature history.

And we will actually started with Heathcliff’s traces. Sort of. Not far from the parsonage where the Brontë lived, starts a magnificent and truly dramatic walk through the moors to the Top Withens. No green fields, just a windy empty space. Emily Brontë and her sisters were believed to walk there on a regular basis. It is also believed, that a lonely farm on the hill inspired Emily the settings of the “Wuthering Heights”, and when you visit the place, you understand why, though nothing can prove it for sure. 6 kilometers of an “off-road” walk immerse you in that very atmosphere where the state of mind of those twisted characters represent no wonder anymore. Nothing can be better, except for an evening cup of tea with milk.

Even our Airbnb stay was in the literature environment – our host was a pubslished author!

Brontë Parsonage is a must-see place for the literary pilgrimage, which we saved for the day-time, while our mind was rested enough for the fresh impressions. It’s neat, cozy and completely occupied by the visitors of all ages. In the backyard, the hens and couple of roosters were quarrelling noisily. Several feet further – the church whose curator was Patrick Brontë imself.  Inside – a tiny universe of everything that was touched by the Brontë Sisters and their brother.

Their personal belongings, including their father’s and brother’s, as well as the costumes given to the museum by BBC after filming a documentary about Brontë lives “To Walk Invisible”, and an interactive exposition about the whole family history – that is what this museum has to offer.

What needs to be done after visiting Haworth is obvious – getting down rereading every Brontë novel.

Thanks to the Brontë Parsonage Museum for supporting us and supplying us with the complimentary tickets.
