Informations supplémentaires

The College was built in the early 16th century by Thomas Thoresby, a wealthy merchant who was Mayor of Lynn and Alderman of the Trinity Guild. It was built to house 13 priests who served in St Margaret's, St Nicholas' and St James' churches in the town and prayed for the King and the Aldermen and benefactors of the Guild. The building was restored by the King's Lynn Preservation Trust in 1963 and now houses a Youth Hostel, flats and offices; the Great Hall is used for meetings and exhibitions. The name of the Judas Tree (Cercis siliquastrum) in the courtyard comes from the traditional belief that Judas Iscariot hanged himself from a tree of this type in the garden of Gethsemane.
