YORK WALK | A walk around York Minster ????????????
A short walk through historic York streets to York Minster for a quick look around the great York Minster and the statue of Constantine The Great
We start this video walking tour of York on Bootham and head up towards York Minster via the York City walls and stop at the Roman Fortress plaque that is marked as follows:
ROMAN FORTRESS
This plaque marks the site of the Porta Principalis Dextra or North Western Gate of the Roman Fortress of which the foundations as rebuilt circa A.D.300 lie just below ground
We go through the City Walls onto High Petergate and past The Hole In The Wall pub and the Three Legged Mare.
As we get to the top end of High Petergate we get our first real full glimpse of the majestic York Minster. A truly awe inspiring sight.
Continuing our walk round York we reach Precentors Court and the West Entrance to York Minster where we stop to take a closer look at the Minster walls.
After a short look outside we head inside York Minster itself to have a quick look inside this amazing Cathedral.
Inside you can see the incredible nave, the stained glass windows and underground there is the crypt's to explore, and if you visit York Minster that's a must do adventure.
Rather than talk through the history of this York MinsterTour we'd rather just watch the video as we come out of the Minster and on to the bronze statue of Constantine The Great.
Constantine The Great was proclaimed the Emperor of Rome a short distance away from York Minster in the year 306.
If you're looking for things to do in York then a visit to York Minster is an absolute must.

YORK WALK | Walk through the historic streets of York
YORK WALK | Walk through the streets of York Town Centre
Walk through the historic streets of York City Centre walking from the steps of York Minster, through Stonegate and on to St Helens Square.
We start this walk around York outside York Minster at the statue of Constantine The Great before we head South West down Stonegate.
Stonegate is one of the most popular streets in York City Centre, and one of the busiest shopping destination in Yorkshire.
If you're visiting York then Stonegate is a must see destination with some quaint shops, some old English pubs and taverns, and a very British feel.

The road has always been central to York's layout. Six feet below its pavement lies the Roman Via Praetoria, which connected the Basilica at the centre of the fortress to the bridge over the River Ouse and the civilian settlement on the other side.
The Roman road may have given this York street its name, although Francis Drake records in 1736: ‘It had this name given as is said from the vast quantity of stone lead through this street for the building of the cathedral’.
As we travel down Stonegate we pass The Punch Bowl English pub and towards the end there is the new York Roast Company that serve the finest Yorkshire Pudding and Roast Beef wraps!

17. SOUNDBITE (Italian) Antonio Minguzzi, head of Minguzzi company:
Have you ever seen the Cristo Portacroce? Have you ever entered the church of Santa Maria Sopra Minerva, just stopped and looked at it, on the left of the altar? When you see a statue of Michelangelo you're in ecstasy, you see all the veins, the hand posed over the arm, everything that you see is perfect and identical to what you see on your own body.

STORYLINE:
APTN has been allowed a rare glimpse of the work of Italy's most renowned statue moving company as they shift huge fragments of an ancient sculpture in one of Rome's museums.
The Minguzzi company's latest project is to move parts of a colossal bronze sculpture of Roman emperor Constantine in the Capitoline Museums on top of Campidoglio, the hill where Rome's main municipal building is located.
The Minguzzi family have run the statue moving company for four generations.
The Vatican and Rome's city authority count on Minguzzis' expertise to move all kinds of heavy art works of important historical and artistic value.
Company boss Antonio Minguzzi inherited the tradition of this exacting work from his grandfather Giuseppe, who started the company in the 19th century.
Minguzzi is known for being the man who moved the Michelangelo Pieta statue from St. Peter's Cathedral in the Vatican.
The business is still a family affair, with his brother Angelo and son Stefano still doing manual labour on site.
The fragments of the Constantine sculpture - originally part of a seated statue believed to have been made around 330 AD - had been taken into the Hall of the Captains to make room for last year's signing ceremony for the European Constitution.
The statue is one of the most prestigious works of the museums' collection.
The operation to move it to the museum's Hall of Orazi and Curiazi requires long hours of preparation and skill.
The extraordinary colossal fragments, the head, the hand and the globe were symbols of the Emperor's power over the world.
The striking portrayal of the first Christian emperor, which still hold traces of its original gilding, represents Constantine in the last years of his reign, after 330 AD.
The elements of the great statue, which would have originally stood between 10 and 12 metres (30 and 36 feet) tall, were originally kept in Rome's Lateran Palace.
In 1471 the parts of the statue were included in works donated by Pope Sixtus IV to the Roman people.

Talking Heads: Animating Constantine
This animation depicts the story of the marbel sculpture of emperor Constantine which was found in York, the city where Constantine was declared Roman Emperor in 306. The animation was produced by film production company Biomation (biomation.org.uk) and was made students Sally Fawcett, Luke Field, Charlie Hemmingway and Isaac Overton as part of Genesis, a York Museums Trust programme of creative interpretation projects for 14-24 year olds.
Arch of Constantine in Rome
This 4th century macho masterpiece has been preserved in an almost perfect state since the day it was constructed by Emperor Constantine. The mighty armies of the Roman Empire marched straight through this megalithic structure in triumph after battle. Huge round medallions adorn the sides of this monument, each detailing a major battle or victory for Emperor Constantine.
