For too long Salisbury has been considered a short stop on the way to Stonehenge. But 2015 is set to be the year visitors linger in this city as it marks the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta, (Latin for “Great Charter”), which limited royal power and established the rights of common people. The highlight for the celebrations will be Salisbury Cathedral, whose Chapter House holds the Magna Carta. A brand new exhibition will launch in the Chapter House, alongside an array of talks, evensongs, and a flower festival.
長期以來，索爾茲伯里只被人們當做去巨石陣途中的一個小站而已。但2015年注定是屬于這個小站的。因為就在整整800年前，限制王權、建立民權的大憲章，正是在這里誕生的。慶祝活動的高潮將在索爾茲伯里大教堂舉行，大憲章的原本就收藏在這里的牧師會禮堂里。這里將舉辦全新的展覽，同時還會進行一系列的演說，晚禱和鮮花慶典。
