Lindisfarne Gospels

Lindisfarne Centre

Where is it – England, North East England

Who looks after it –  Community 

What is it –  Free access, Museum or Gallery, Retail 

When is it from – All or N/A

What looks like a shop at first glance turns out to be a slightly more interesting little museum-cum-exhibition. You could say it’s a mixture of retail and retale.  It has displays about the Vikings and Lindisfarne’s flora and fauna, a small cinema showing a short film about the Viking invasions and a surely unique, absorbing, interactive display and facsimile of the Lindisfarne Gospels (the original is in the British Library). Opposite the Centre is the Gospel Garden.
