A Medieval Christmas in Chester
The Grosvenor Museum has asked us to publicise their Medieval Christmas, to be held in the Chapter House at Chester Cathedral on Sunday, December 6 between 10:30am and 4:30pm.
They promise ‘you will have the opportunity to discover how Christmas was celebrated many years ago. There will be Medieval food, herbs and spices, Medieval Christmas carols played on period instruments and you can join in the dancing and mumming plays. The pardoner will show you some of his relics and pilgrim signs, or you can even make your own beeswax candle with the chandler.’ Let’s hope this pardoner is a bit more honest than Chaucer’s!
