Worcester: royal tombs, civil war and making traditions

Worcester Cathedral preserves the tomb of King John and Prince Arthur’s Chantry, along with St Wulfstan’s Norman crypt and a long library tradition. Nearby, The Commandery interprets the Battle of Worcester and the English Civil War.

The city’s manufacturing identity also matters. Royal Worcester porcelain created a deep ceramic vocabulary, while Lea & Perrins made Worcestershire sauce internationally recognisable. The River Severn then ties cathedral views, bridges, Diglis and New Road together.
