That JORVIK Viking Thing Podcast

Micklegate Bar: York's Royal Entryway

York's City Walls are the most complete in England, and they feature 4 Bars, though sadly not the kind that serve drinks!

Join Miranda and Lucas as they take a small step back from the Viking Age and look at  York's Royal Entrance: Micklegate Bar. 

Following the Platinum Jubilee, we take a look at the monarch's ceremonial entrance into the city. Where did the ceremony come from? And have all the monarchs been so warmly welcomed?
