King Arthur's Hall, Tintagel, Architectural structure in Tintagel, England.
Description
King Arthur's Hall is an architectural building in Tintagel featuring 72 stained glass windows designed by Veronica Whall, each displaying detailed scenes from medieval Arthurian tales. The windows fill the interior with colored light and tell stories from the legend of King Arthur.
History
The building was established in 1933 as headquarters for the Order of the Fellowship of the Knights of the Round Table using 53 types of Cornish stone in its construction. This founding marked the creation of a dedicated space for celebrating Arthurian tradition.
Culture
The walls display paintings by William Hatherell showing moments from King Arthur's life story. These artworks work alongside the stained glass to create a visual narrative of Arthurian legend throughout the interior.
