Located in the magnificent south triforium of Ely Cathedral, The
Stained Glass Museum is the only museum in the UK solely dedicated
to the ancient art and craft of stained glass, which has been
practised in Britain for almost 1,500 years. Once almost solely
confined to church buildings and manor houses whose patrons could
afford luxurious coloured glass windows, from the 19th century
stained glass also became popular in secular buildings. In recent
times it has been used to enliven and form part of the main
structure of corporate buildings, hotels, community and shopping
centres. The Stained Glass Museum has given new life to hundreds of
windows removed from redundant buildings across the British Isles,
since its foundation in 1972. This guide describes and illustrates
highlights from the Museum's growing collection of over 1,000
stained glass panels and windows, from the 13th century through to
the present day, as well as associated designs, sketches, cartoons
and tools.
