A one-day Symposium, linked to our current exhibition of coronation treasures from Grimsthorpe’s historic collection. The Symposium will explore the traditions of British coronations and court culture, and their connection to Grimsthorpe Castle through the hereditary office of the Lord Great Chamberlain.
Amongst our distinguished panel of historians and art historians, the current Lord Great Chamberlain, Lord Carrington, and the Maltravers Herald Extraordinary will give their unique insights into the organisation and staging of King Charles III’s coronation.
Join us in the splendid surroundings of the Vanbrugh Hall for a day of discussion and revelation.
