University of St Andrews
Location:
Wardlaw Museum

St Andrews in the medieval period was Scotland’s religous capital, the seat of its first archbishop, a major site of pilgrimage and a centre of learning.

It was a city that lost much through the destruction of the Reformation, but some things have survived.

This exhibition brings together unique and often dazzling artworks, artefacts, manuscripts and books in St Andrews for the first time in nearly 500 years, telling the story of a town and time that can now only be glimpsed.

Created by Professor Michael Brown and Dr Bess Rhodes, experts in the field, it is complemented by amazing virtual reconstructions of the town and its buildings, showing the cathedral in all its glory, the castle before it was looted and the University as it could only be imagined.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a range of events and experiences that enable visitors to dive deeper into the St Andrews of the medieval period

Admission is free and no booking is required.
