Canterbury Cathedral - Oxford PhD Guide Day Trip
Overview
Your guide, Dr Geoff is an expert on medieval church architecture and has written a book on the subject. With this expertise, your guide will show you all of the features of this great building. You will learn not only why it was built but how.
You will also learn about the fact that this cathedral was a murder scene! In 1170 Archbishop Thomas Becket was killed by four knights who cut him down inside. Was King Henry II really to blame? You decide! You will see where this happened and see where the shrine to the Saint was created.
You will also learn about why Canterbury was such an important place in English history. Dr Geoff explains everything in an easy-to-understand way which has earned him consistent 5-Star Key West Private Charters ratings on his other tour.
