Dr John Jenkins, Director of Pilgrimage Studies from the University of York, will present:
"St William of York in the Later Middle Ages: Popes, Kings and Popular Devotion".
Dr Jenkins will explore the devotion inspired by the cult of St William, examining pilgrimage and how this saint touched the lives of thousands of people across medieval society, from kings and nobles to ordinary men and women.
This lecture will begin at 6.30pm in the Lady Chapel of York Minster. There is no need to pre-book.
Many of the flowers have been gathered from the gardens around the Minster, bringing a little bit of the season indoors 🧡

We've all stood outside and grabbed that iconic York selfie, but unless you step through these great doors, and experience this magnificent cathedral for yourself, have you really visited York Minster?
Have you seen sunlight stream through the Great East Window, the single largest expanse of medieval stained glass in the country, or heard the sound of stonemasons chipping away at their creations?
Have you felt the reverberations of the Grand Organ as you walk through the cavernous Nave, or descended into the Undercroft Museum to see some of the 300,000 precious objects in our care?
Have you met our skilled gardeners who nurture the green space that surrounds us, or spoken to our Police Officers who work night and day to protect all those who visit?
Have you sat still inside this holy and historic place and simply absorbed the atmosphere of somewhere that has been a source of inspiration and connection for 1400 years?
Have you ever visited York Minster?
