Historic artefacts on display
Cawood Sword - part of a new exhibition at Yorkshire Museum in York.
SOME of the most prestigious and significant medieval objects ever found in Britain will tell York’s story as Capital of the North this February.
Opening February 16, a new exhibition at the Yorkshire Museum will tell the extraordinary story of how great swathes of the country were ruled from within York’s walls during the Medieval period; exploring famous people and events connected with the medieval city.
Some of the Yorkshire Museum’s most prized objects, such as the Cawood Sword, the Escrick Ring and the Middleham Jewel will be included in the exhibition, as well as artefacts which are rarely on public display.
