The last royal wedding to take place at Winchester Cathedral was that of Mary I and Prince Philip, the future Philip II of Spain. 25 July 1554 was a momentous day for the couple, for their realms, and for their future legacy in England, but how is this reflected in Winchester today? Join Dr Johanna Strong as she discusses the significance of this royal marriage to Winchester and to England and as she explores the ways in which this marriage is remembered, from Winchester College’s celebrations at the time, to the elaborate décor now at the Westgate Museum, to the Cathedral’s own remembrances of England’s first crowned queen regnant.
