This year will see the undertaking one of the largest pieces of work inside the Minster for at least a century. It is our mission to make God's House open to all and to ensure that many generations to come can enjoy and access this iconic building.

🔴 BREAKING NEWS 🔴 York Minster takes down (some) scaffolding! We're aware that the constant scaffolding on cathedrals has become a bit of a running joke (we needed 16 miles of it when we were working on the Great East Window!), so it's worth celebrating when we actually get to take some down. As buildings go, this cathedral is pretty high maintenance and alongside all the scaffolding it takes a multidisciplinary team of skilled heritage craftspeople to care for its ongoing cycle of repair, res

🏛️ Looking Up toward the Central Tower at York Minster is one of the most breathtaking sights in the cathedral, the central tower tower vault. 🌟 The tower vault rises nearly 60 metres (about 200 feet) above the floor. It is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, built from pale stone ribs that curve upward into an intricate fan of pointed arches. At the very top, the ribs meet at a beautiful central boss, richly decorated, a reminder of the craftsmanship that shaped the Minster centuries ago. L
