About
Eight hundred years ago, in September 1225, the East End of Salisbury Cathedral was finished – the beginning of a medieval masterpiece. At the first service, Bishop Richard Poore dedicated three altars with the Archbishop of Canterbury Stephen Langton and King Henry III later joining the celebrations. Saint Osmund's shrine was built here in the 15th century, although later destroyed in the Reformation, and in 1980, the spectacular Prisoners of Conscience Window was installed, designed by Gabriel Loire and unveiled by violinist Yehudi Menuhin.
This mini exhibition held in the Cathedral Library includes ancient documents and other treasures from the Cathedral's archive, library and historic objects collections from the medieval period to more recent times.
