Audio Descriptive Talk and Tea: Crusader Coins

Join us for a series of descriptive talks and object handling exploring key objects in the collection. These sessions have been designed for blind and partially sighted visitors.

This month join Rachel Job, Collections & Engagement Officer, to explore some of the crusader coins in the Museum’s collection. These coins were minted for the Western-ruled states established by the First Crusade in the 1100s, including for the Kingdom of Jerusalem, where the Order of St John had been founded.

This is a free event and takes place in the Museum Galleries which have step-free access throughout. For more information on getting to the Museum and our facilities please visit the website or call us on 020 7324 4005. Lines are monitored Wednesday - Saturday 9:30am - 5pm. Alternatively, you can email us on museum@sja.org.uk.

Our guides have all been trained by VocalEyes. Once you have booked, there is no need to print your order confirmation or ticket - we will just ask for your name on the door. Numbers are limited to ensure everyone gets an opportunity to handle the objects. If you book and your plans change, please drop us a line so we can release your tickets.
