Christmas Tide Tour

December 1

Wander through stone cloisters draped in fresh ivy and evergreen garlands while guides unpack how medieval monks actually celebrated Christmas. Each tour explores a different angle: the Christian symbolism behind holly and mistletoe, the Three Kings in art, or the plants woven into tapestries like the famous unicorn hunt.
