About This Event

The exhibition 'Treasure Ship 1527' at Godolphin tells the story of the St Anthony, a shipwrecked vessel laden with royal treasure in 1527. It explores the controversies surrounding the ship's riches and the legal battles that ensued. Admission is required to view the exhibition.

A storm. A ship laden with royal treasure. A fortune worth millions. And a scandal that reached the highest levels of Tudor England.

Discover the extraordinary story of the St Anthony, wrecked in Mount's Bay in 1527, and the bitter battle over who had the right to claim its riches. With accusations of extortion, royal rivalries and a case heard before the Star Chamber, the truth is far from straightforward.

The verdict has been lost to history. Now it's your turn to investigate.
