GREAT WAR MEMORIAL WINDOW ✨
This window is one of the most recent editions to the Minster. The window and plaque were designed by Nicholas Mynheer in 2014 and installed in 2016 as a tribute to those from Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire who lost their lives during the First World War.

No photograph can recreate the splendour of this window lit-up on a bright day, so visit us and see it up close! Learn the significance behind each panel of the window. Exhibition entry is free, donations welcome. The vibrant bright colours really stand out as you walk past and provide a moving tribute to the sacrifice made.
🔎Can you spot the Minster in the window?

ROBERT ‘MOUSEMAN’ THOMPSON’S MICE 🐭
The story goes that in 1919, Thompson was carving a piece of furniture when he joked with a friend about “being as poor as a church mouse.” This friend gave him the idea to carve a tiny mouse on the piece he was working on. He liked it so much that he decided to add a mouse to everything he made after that!

The altar rails and the Bishop’s Seat (Cathedra) were made at Thompson’s Yorkshire studio – can you find his signature mouse?

We have 28 mice at the Minster but they do have a habit of moving! How many can you spot?🔎

1884 EMBROIDERED BANNER 🧵
Our Embroidery Guild recently discovered this exquisite Victorian banner from 1884. It has been conserved by the People’s History Museum and the original will soon be on permanent display in the Minster.

The banner had been hidden away for years and was found at the back of a cupboard, just in time for our 140th Anniversary. A note listing the names of the embroiderers and designers (architects) was found with the banner. It would have taken them hours of dedication to create! It shows that it takes a wide, dedicated and diverse team with lots of different skills to make a cathedral!

🧵 If you'd like to meet the Needlework Guild why not join us for our annual Discovery Day on 5th September?🧵

Emma Frith and members of the guild invite you to delve into the cope chest and vestment presses to discover the importance of textiles and embroidery in worship. See how vestments are designed, made and cared for with goldwork and canvaswork demonstrations, and get a rare close-up glimpse of our lost and found treasure: the processional banner!

Are you visiting us over the #BankHoliday weekend? We do hope so! Come and enjoy our free exhibition #Southwell140 - celebrating 140 years of being a Cathedral! 🥳

Come and say hello to the first ever Bishop of Southwell:
BISHOP RIDDING
His memorial is today’s #Southwell140 exhibit. He welcomes all with open arms. Bishop Ridding became the first ever Bishop of Southwell, on 28th May 1884. It was a big day for Southwell. The bunting was flying and from the old station there were special trains constantly arriving during the morning and late into the afternoon which brought hundreds of visitors. The Cathedral was only open on the day of the Enthronement and reopened again four years later in 1888 when it had been refurbished.

You can’t visit Southwell by train anymore, but you can bus, walk, travel by vehicle or even horseback to get here!
Everyone is welcome. Entry is free. Donations welcomed. https://southwellminster.org/140objects/

CATHEDRA
‘Cathedra’ is a Latin word meaning ‘chair’ or ‘seat’. A cathedral is home to the Bishop’s Seat. This chair was made as a memorial to Bishop Mosley, who was Bishop from 1928 to 1941.
The Cathedra was created by Robert (Mouse-man) Thompson, who was famous for his mouse carvings. How many mice can you spot in this photo and (if you visit) around the Minster? 🐁🐭🐀
