Inspired by Heraldry

Step back in time and discover the fascinating world of coats of arms in the Yorkshire Heraldry Society’s new exhibition opening at the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds. The free exhibition - Inspired by Heraldry - showcases a historic art dating to 12th century Britain and France, which distinguished nobles and knights. The Society will display around 30 examples of heraldry across four different themes - The Tudors; Knights of the Golden Fleece of the 15th century; Livery Companies of Arms and Armour and Famous Yorkshire Families. Visitors can get involved by submitting their own heraldry designs into the “create your own” competition and the winning design will take pride of place within the exhibition.
