St Seraphim’s Orthodox Church in Walsingham is running a series of spring and summer events in its beautiful chapel and colourful garden.
Most of the activities will be outdoors, taking advantage of the extensive grounds and giving visitors opportunities to nurture as well as simply enjoy the garden. There is also a railway heritage museum, and there will be regular opportunities for a guided tour of the icons which play a central role in Orthodox worship.
