CONINGSBY HOSPITAL

Located in Widemarsh Street, just a short walk from the city centre, the St John Medieval Museum and and Coningsby Hospital is adjacent to the Blackfriars Rose Garden and the ruins of the Dominican Monastery... Visitors can learn about the foundation of the Coningsby Red Coat Hospital, probably the model for The Chelsea Hospital in London, as well as exploring the 13th century Chapel, still used today by the Order of St John, and the Museum, which explains the links between the Crusades, the Knights Templar and The Hospitaller Knights.
