Mithras - London Mithraeum
A newspaper article in November 2017 which caught my attention
Crowds in 1954
I went to London and walked across the road from Cannon Street station
And there behind me was the site of the London Mithraeum:
12 Walbrook, London EC4N 8AA
From another angle
Entry is free, but with a timed ticket; I was handed this booklet on entry
Built on a special place
What to see
Descend through time - an extraordinary sensation as I went down many steps to the past
There was the altar
From another angle
Base of one original door post, near my feet
On current ground level
A closer look at some of the finds
Beautiful fragments
I had a fascinating and memorable visit; details can be found at https://www.londonmithraeum.com
After my visit I walked along and down College Hill
Richard Whittington's Church
Round the corner was the entrance to St. Michael's Church, and the offices of The Mission to Seafarers, at St. Michael Paternoster Royal, College Hill, London EC4R 2RL
