Itinerar

  1. Oprirea 1

    5 min Intrarea nu este inclusă

    Micklegate Bar is the most significant of York’s four main medieval gateway bars, historically serving as the principal entrance for monarchs arriving from the south. Dating from the 12th–14th centuries, this historic landmark features a 4-storey structure that formerly held a barbican, acted as a prison, and displayed severed heads of traitors.

  2. Oprirea 2

    10 min Intrarea inclusă

    Holy Trinity Micklegate is a Grade I listed Parish Church. It is the home of the Monks of Micklegate exhibition and uniquely in York it is the only monastic church still in use following the Dissolution of the monasteries in 1536 before which it was part of a much larger complex.

  3. York Mansion House

    5 min Intrarea nu este inclusă

    The home of the Lord Mayor of the City of York.

  4. Oprirea 4

    5 min Intrarea inclusă

    Regarded by the Victorians as one of the most beautiful churches in the city, St Martin's was burnt out in World War II, in bombing known as the 'Baedeker raids' for targeting historic cities. Only the tower and the south aisle survived.

    After extensive rebuilding, the church was rehallowed as a chapel of peace and reconciliation, and a walled garden was created from the remaining shell.

  5. St. Leonards Hospital

    5 min Intrarea inclusă

    Ruins of a medieval hospital founded after the Norman conquest, and largely destroyed under the orders of Henry VIII.

  6. Yorkshire Museum

    Trecere fără oprire

    A beautiful building housing five galleries which showcase archaeological treasures plus displays of rare animals, birds and fossils.

  7. Museum Gardens

    These beautiful riverside gardens are where an old Abbey once stood and before that a Roman fort.

  8. Oprirea 8

    5 min Intrarea inclusă

    The remains of a Roman Legionary fortress established by the Ninth Legion, "Hispana", in AD71-74.

  9. Multangular Tower

    Trecere fără oprire

    The Multangular Tower in the Museum Gardens is the most significant and intact structure remaining from the Roman walls. It was constructed as part of a series of eight similar defensive towers and is almost 30 feet high and has 10 sides... hence its name!

  10. St. Mary's Abbey

    5 min

    Originally built in 1088, St. Mary’s Abbey is a beautiful historic ruin set in the peaceful Museum Gardens. The remains of the medieval abbey are impressive and give a glimpse of York’s rich past.

  11. Oprirea 11

    5 min

    The Edible Wood is located in the York Museum Gardens and was planted in July 2015. The design of the Edible Wood is based on the principles of permaculture and forest gardening, exploring our relationship with food and the future of crop production. It features plants that have an edible component and are both attractive and useful – valuable qualities as home gardens become smaller and people search for multi-functional plants.

  12. York Art Gallery

    Trecere fără oprire

    York Art Gallery’s collection of paintings spans more than 600 years and works range from 14th century Italian panels and 17th century Dutch masterpieces to Victorian narrative paintings and 20th century works by LS Lowry and David Hockney.
