Micklegate Priory Revealed: Cloister

Welcome to Holy Trinity church, located on Micklegate in the historic city of York.

Holy Trinity's modern-day role as a parish church hides an important monastic past. In 1089, Benedictine monks from Marmoutier in Normandy created a priory here on the site of a pre-Conquest church, which itself was possibly the successor of Alcuin of York's great Saxon church, the Alma Sophia. Holy Trinity currently hosts an exhibition exploring Micklegate Priory and the lives of its monks. Explore Holy Trinity's past using the following links:
