1955 Footage of Tintern Abbey

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Tintern Abbey is one of the most famous Cistercian ruins in Britain. It was the second British foundation, and attained international fame in the Romantic period because of Wordsworth’s evocation of the landscape. 1955 BBC footage is available online. The report lyrically describes the ruinous abbey, which was the first Cistercian foundation in Wales, and only the second in Britain.

Its location directly on the River Wye is and is not typically Cistercian: being close to a creak is typical, but Tintern is rare because the River Wye is much more than a creak, it is one of the major British waterways.

The footage communicates the eerie British fascination with Cisterciensia. The monastic order is considered to be a particularly valuable patrimony, and abbey ruins have been a major part of British tourism as long as tourism has existed. Tintern even became a site of pilgrimage for a modern Beat poet like Allen Ginsberg. 

This footage is valuable for those interested in Cistercian geography and aesthetics.
