St William's College

St William's College

One of York's most fascinating buildings, the College is named after Saint William of York, who was Archbishop in 1153 and whose tomb lies inside the Minster. 

St William's was built between 1465 and 1467 to house the Chantry priests, and is the only surviving building of its kind in the country.
