Church of St Margaret, Medieval church in York, England
The Church of St Margaret features stone walls, pointed arches, and a rectangular layout characteristic of Norman ecclesiastical architecture in northern England.
The construction of St Margaret's Church began in 1150, during the period when York was developing into a major religious center in medieval England.
The National Centre for Early Music maintains the church building, organizing concerts and educational programs focused on historical musical performances throughout the year.
Visitors can access the Church of St Margaret through guided tours from Monday to Saturday between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM, except during music events.
The church incorporates several medieval stone carvings into its walls, including figures of animals and geometric patterns that predate the Norman architectural elements.
