The Augustine Camino is a week-long walking pilgrimage from Rochester Cathedral (the second founded by Augustine) to Ramsgate via Aylesford Priory, Canterbury Cathedral, Minster Abbey and many very wonderful small village churches and country pubs.
This is the home of the Gothic Revival, as the personal church of the man who built the Houses of Parliament – Augustus Pugin.
St Augustine was sent by Pope Gregory the Great to England to give the English people the Good News of Christianity. He was a monk at the monastery founded by Gregory (before he was elected pope) on the Caelian Hill in Rome. There is still a monastery there today.
Pugin was one of the most important designers and architects of the nineteenth century. He lived for just 40 years, but people say that in that time he completed 80 years of work.
St Augustine’s worked with the generous help and funding of the Heritage Lottery Fund to complete a project for the establishing of an Education, Research and Visitor Centre at the Shrine.
