YORK MINSTER - THE NAVE by LoriPori
Work commenced on YORK MINSTER NAVE in 1291. The widest Gothic Nave in England, I was immediately struck by the sheer enormity of it all. As you walk through the West Door, a statue to your right shows the Minster's Patron Saint, St. Peter. holding his symbol - a key. Behind and above you is the magnificent West Window built between 1338-39 in the Curvilinear Decorated style. The Nave also contains several examples of Norman stained glass on both the North and South sides.
