Welcome to the autumn edition of What’s On at Beverley Minster. Prayers have been said on this site since John, Bishop of York, founded a monastery here. He retired to this place and died in 712. Visit his tomb in the Minster and follow in the footsteps of the thousands of pilgrims who came to Beverley to venerate Saint John. Whether you visit as a tourist to see one of the most beautiful Gothic churches in Europe, come to a service, attend a concert or visit an exhibition, you will be made most welcome.
