The Final Resting Place of Thomas More’s Head

Описание: Thomas More was executed on Tower Hill on July 6th 1535. His faughter Margaret retrieved his head from the pike Thames. She put it in a casket, keeping it with her until she herself died in 1577.
Margaret was buried in St Dunstan's church in Canterbury England in her husband's family vault, as requested her father's head was lad next to her. In 1597 the Roper vault was enlarged and rebuilt- the casket containing Thomas More's head was moved and placed behind an iron grill in the new vault where it lies to this day behind a locked door. Thomas More was canonized by the Roman Catholic Church in
1935. He is the patron saint of statesmen and politicians.
