The Royal Martyr


Today is the anniversary of the regicide of King Charles I in 1649.

Last year I posted about a number of links to sites concerning the cult and commemoration of the Royal Martyr and it seems appropriate to link to that again. The links can be seen by going to King Charles the Martyr


An additional example of a relic is linked to in another post from last year at Charles I King and Martyr
