Discover the miracles, murder and mystery of our city’s patron saint in our new exhibition 'St William of York: Life and Legacy'.Join us for the opening weekend of our new year-long exhibition, as we celebrate 800 years since the canonisation of William as a saint.
Take the rare opportunity to see pieces from his medieval Nave shrine returned to York Minster for the first time in almost 500 years. Explore his story and see precious artefacts which narrate the life of a man who devoted himself to our city and cathedral.
Visitors are invited to discover the exhibition plus a new cinematic experience, before journeying through the Crypt to see St William’s tomb, a holy and historic place of pilgrimage.
Good to know:
Running until January 2027, 'St William of York: Life and Legacy' is on display in the cathedral’s historic Treasury during sightseeing times.
Entry is included with a sightseeing ticket at no extra cost. Tickets for York Minster can be pre-booked on our website.
