There are just a few days left to come and experience the 'Enough!' Installation - inviting us to pause, reflect, and consider the human cost of conflict. Enough? by artist Isabel Knowland will be on display in the Dean's Chapel Until 5 November 2026. Featuring 260 figures representing an estimated 65,000 lives lost, the installation seeks to help us comprehend the devastating scale of human suffering caused by war and asks a simple but profound question: How many lives must be lost before a route to peace is found? Inspired by the conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine, Enough? is a powerful and moving work that speaks to the universal impact of war on civilians and communities. 📍 Dean's Chapel, Worcester Cathedral 📅 until 5 November 2026 Learn more about Isabel's work: www.isabelknowland.com #EnoughInstallation #WorcesterCathedral #ContemporaryArt #ArtForPeace #Exhibition #PeaceAndReflection #CathedralArts #IsabelKnowland #ArtExhibition #WorcesterEvents #ArtWithPurpose #ReflectAndRespond #PeaceThroughArt by @worcestercathedral

Look what turned up in our precincts this week... A cauldron? Well, not quite! Our archaeologist rediscovered this early 19th-century cast-iron cooking pot from a cellar in College Green. Complete with traces of its original handle and once standing on three little feet, it would have been a familiar feature of everyday domestic life. With Hallowe'en around the corner, we couldn't resist sharing this wonderfully atmospheric find. And if you're looking for some spooky fun after admiring our "domestic cauldron", don't miss our Organ Spooktacular Concert on Saturday 31 October!🎵 Book tickets via the 'What's On' link in our bio! #WorcesterCathedral #ArchaeologyFind #LocalHistory #Heritage #OrganSpooktacular by @worcestercathedral
