From tours to talks and choral concerts to business meetings, the calendar is quite varied. Here's what's left of the February 2019 events:

Feasting and Fasting: The Great Kitchen at Durham Cathedral

Feasting and Fasting is the latest Durham Cathedral Open Treasure exhibition. The theme seems apt given that part of Durham Cathedral Open Treasure is housed in the 14th Century former Great Kitchen, one of only two surviving monastic kitchens.

The Feasting and Fasting exhibition explores the Great Kitchen's history, how it was built by architect John Lewyn in 1370, and gives an insight into the food and drink that would have been prepared there.

The highlight of Open Treasure Feasting and Fasting is a collection of recipes cooked in the Great Kitchen, including the oldest known medieval recipe book, recipes from King Richard II’s cook, and the illustrated cookbook of John Thacker, cook to the Dean and Chapter between 1739-1758.

Durham Cathedral Open Treasure is open Monday to Saturday, 10am-5pm (last entry 4pm) and Sundays, 12.30pm-5pm (last entry 4pm). Feasting and Fasting runs until June 1.
