Newington Uncovered, a free event giving visitors an opportunity to find out more about the village's rich heritage, is being held in St Mary's Church between 2:00pm and 5:00pm.
There will be an opportunity to share stories during an informal discussion, Memory Moments, which will be held each day at 3:30pm.
Organisers of the weekend, Newington History Group (NHG), hope to hear untold stories and reveal unknown details about the village. They are also hoping that some people will take along items or photographs with a local link.
Thelma Dudley, NHG secretary, said: "People often don't realise the wider importance in local history terms of a family story, incident or picture. For instance, recently someone showed us an old family wedding photograph and we noticed two oast houses in the background. The significance was that, until then, we'd thought there was only ever one oast house on the site."
The open days will include displays on Newington's Roman occupation, its Australian pioneers, Royal connections and other unique stories.
The church is the village's oldest building and historians will be on hand to show and describe details of its stunning Medieval graffiti and murals. In addition there will be history trails, children's activities and teas will be available.
