Exciting news from @britishmuseum - @No1Cathedral window is the centrepiece of the exhibit! #EastbridgeHospital #EastbridgeHospitalCanterbury #Becket2020

[British Museum @britishmuseum]

This stunning stained-glass window will be the centrepiece of our #ThomasBecket exhibition opening in April.

The 6-metre-tall window is on loan for the first time from @No1Cathedral and is over 800 years old. It’s one of a set of windows that depict miracles attributed to Becket

Today, we mark the martyrdom of St Thomas Becket. #Becket2020 #EastbridgeHospital #EastbridgeHospitalCanterbury

[Eastbridge Hospital @EastbridgeHosp]

On this day in 1170, Saint Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, was martyred. The mass pilgrimage to his tomb in the years that followed led to the foundation of #EastbridgeHospital of Saint Thomas the Martyr in 1180; a place for poor pilgrims to rest. #Becket2020
