However, the site itself was off-limits to the general public for decades and the fans that reached it found themselves barred by a brick wall and a high red gate. Now, for the first time, the site is opening as a tourist attraction.

Tickets for the site can be bought on the  Strawberry field internet site. According to the site, visitors “will enter into a world where ‘nothing is real’ plunging into the 1860’s era where Strawberry Field began as a Victorian house before it transformed into a safe place where The Salvation Army supported and homed some of Liverpool’s vulnerable youth.”

“I’ve been really impressed by the Salvation Army’s vision and now there is huge potential to make a real change in the lives of young people who will grow in the precious soil of Strawberry Field,” said Lennon’s sister, Julia Baird.
