King Arthur's Great Halls in Tintagel

King Arthur's Great Halls was designed and built in the 1930s to encapsulate the world and legend of King Arthur.
It was opened in 1933, King Arthur's Great Halls is a granite and slate building dedicated to the legend of King Arthur.
It has been featured in many films and television programmes and contains a round table and granite thrones surrounded by 72 fabulous stained glass windows, depicting the Arthurian legend and designed by a pupil of William Morris. A Fellowship of the Knights of The Round Table of King Arthur existed in the early 1930s here and was revived in 1993. It is based on the symbolism and ideals of Arthurian tradition, specifically those of care and consideration for our fellow human beings.













When I came to Tinagel this morning my first step was in King Arthur's great Hall. It was very interesting to listen ton  legend of King Arthur. I was lucky to be firt of visitors there and I could take some photos [ without people what it was impossible in other places this day]
