We visited the city of Winchester and of course Winchester Cathedral.
This magnificent cathedral dates back to 1079. Jane Austen is buried here, her grave is marked with a commemorative plaque. Also, chests contain the bones of many Saxon kings and the remains of the Viking conqueror Canute and his wife, Emma. The son of William the Conqueror, William Rufus (who reigned as William II), is also buried at the cathedral.
