Library & Archives In Focus: Mythology of Mars

Thursday 22 February, drop in between 2pm and 4pm

Join us under Luke Jerram’s remarkable red planet to discover literary, scientific and botanical references to the Roman god of Mars from the collections of the Cathedral Library, from Shakespeare and Milton to woodpeckers and wormwood.

This event is included in general Cathedral admission.

“Exeter Cathedral is architecture as theatre.”

“A lovely way to spend the afternoon for the whole family.”

“Really lovely, and unexpectedly ‘wow.’”

“I am in a wheelchair, but I could see everything (pretty much!)”

“Well worth the sore neck from time spent looking heavenwards!”

“An oasis of calm…”

“A beautiful choir sang the mass and all the people were friendly and welcoming.”
