York (i/ˈjɔːrk/) is a historic walled city at the confluence of the rivers Ouse and Foss in North Yorkshire, England, and is the traditional county town of Yorkshire to which it gives its name. The city has a rich heritage and has provided the backdrop to major political events in England throughout much of its two millennia of existence. The city offers a wealth of historic attractions, of which York Minster is the most prominent, and a variety of cultural and sporting activities making it a popular tourist destination for millions.
The city was founded by the Romans as Eboracum in 71 AD. It became the capital of the Roman province of Britannia Inferior, and later of the kingdoms of Northumbria and Jórvík. In the Middle Ages, York grew as a major wool trading centre and became the capital of the northern ecclesiastical province of the Church of England, a role it has retained.
In the 19th century, York became a hub of the railway network and a confectionery manufacturing centre. In recent decades, the economy of York has moved from being dominated by its confectionery and railway-related industries to one that provides services. The University of York and health services have become major employers, whilst tourism has become an important element of the local economy.
The Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of Saint Peter in York, commonly known as York Minster, is the cathedral of York, England, and is one of the largest of its kind in Northern Europe. The minster is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the second-highest office of the Church of England, and is the cathedral for the Diocese of York. It is run by a dean and chapter, under the Dean of York. The title "minster" is attributed to churches established in the Anglo-Saxon period as missionary teaching churches, and serves now as an honorific title. Services in the minster are sometimes regarded as on the High Church or Anglo-Catholic end of the Anglican continuum.
The minster has a very wide Decorated Gothic nave and chapter house, a Perpendicular Gothic Quire and east end and Early English North and South transepts. The nave contains the West Window, constructed in 1338, and over the Lady Chapel in the east end is the Great East Window, (finished in 1408), the largest expanse of medieval stained glass in the world. In the north transept is the Five Sisters Window, each lancet being over 52 feet (16 m) high. The south transept contains a rose window, while the West Window contains a heart-shaped design colloquially known as 'The Heart of Yorkshire'.
York is a great city to visit in Northern England and York Minster should be tops on your list when visiting. The Minster boasts a great collection of Medieval stained glass and gothic carvings. The climb to the top of the minster tower is well worth the effort too as there are great views to be had over the city.

BBC TV programme broadcast on 16 October 1996 to mark the 70th anniversary of the long-running BBC Radio series “Choral Evensong”. Featuring the choir of York Minster, directed by Philip Moore, and introduced by Joanna Trollope. Organ: John Scott Whiteley. The anthem appears to have been left out of the broadcast, possibly for reasons of length, so this is not quite a complete Evensong. Responses: William Smith Psalms: 149, 150 (Stanford) Canticles: St Paul’s Service (Herbert Howells) Hymn: Ye that know the Lord is gracious (“Hyfrydol”)
This is part two of a three-part documentary series about life in York Minster. The stone carvers are hard at work at York Minster as the building goes through a 20 million restoration programme. But have they enough time to replace the mysterious weathered statue that sits above the east window? Meanwhile, the girl choristers are getting ready for their first major solo performance
http://tourvideos.com/ York Minster is one of the largest Gothic cathedrals in northern Europe. The Cathedral is located on the north edge of the old town in a beautiful setting. Right next to the church you'll find Deans Park, a tranquil patch of greenery ideal for taking a break – maybe sit on a bench or spread out on the grass and relax for a while. Built on the site of the first Roman settlement, the church owes its origins to an early Saxon king, Edwin, who married a Christian queen and converted to Christianity in the year 627. To commemorate his baptism he built a small wooden church on the site of the Minster. Much later a series of larger stone churches were constructed, one after the other, including a vast Norman church in the Romanesque style, and then finally, the Minster.

Up up up. The well-worn thousand year old stone stairs spiraled forever up. On either side; impenetrable thick stone walls. Behind us; the thundering hordes. Turning back now would mean certain defeat. Our only hope of victory lay in fighting our way to the top. Two hundred and seventy five steps in all. And yet, as we continuously fought our way upward, we were denied the aid of smoking or lighting of matches. The authorities had declared them, "STRICTLY FORBIDDEN." One lady, somewhat older, couldn't keep up with the pack. She paused, breathless, and waved me on. I had to stay with my family. What else could I do? Did she make it? I don't know. I never saw her again. Halfway up, we came across an opening in the wall leading to a narrow ledge. With mere inches separating us from a five st...

The formal title of York Minster is The Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of St Peter in York. ork Minster is the second largest Gothic cathedral of Northern Europe and clearly charts the development of English Gothic architecture from Early English through to the Perpendicular Period.

For More Great Documentaries please visit www.DocumentaryList.NET and support the site In the early 19th century the grand architecture of York Minster was an enigma. But then in 1829 "the voice of God" drove Jonathan Martin to burn the cathedral down. While locals became obsessed with finding and punishing the perpetrator, architect John Browne became equally enthralled by the secrets the decimated structure began to reveal.
