In death, Edmund was said to work miracles — bringing healing, comfort and protection to the faithful, and exacting justice upon criminals and rulers alike. His name and relics would inspire political endeavours and combat and kings that followed would fear his spectral wrath.
This summer at Moyse’s Hall we will celebrate Edmund in life and in death like never before. Through academic partnership, we will meet Edmund in his 9th Century world, before exploring the rise and fall of his cult.
Visitors to Edmund and the Great Heathen Army can enjoy daily family trails throughout the exhibition, with workshops and special daytime events taking place on selected dates; the programme will also feature a themed evening lecture series.

Dates: Saturday 6 June – Sunday 4 October
