    Reviving the Trinity Stones

    ~ Edinburgh ~

    A Medieval Jigsaw Puzzle and a Modern-day Treasure Hunt

  • Welcome!

    Reviving the Trinity Stones is a two-year project seeking to track down the missing stones from one of Edinburgh's finest medieval buildings - Mary of Guelders' Trinity Collegiate Church.

    A group of four people look at some small stone samples resting on an elaborately carved medieval stone boss in the Museum of Edinburgh courtyard.

    What is the project about, who is involved, and the bigger picture.
