Scotland St. Cuthbert's Way (PiP)
The Anglo-Saxon monastery of Lindisfarne on the island of Lindisfarne off the north-east coast of England in the county of Northumberland.
In 635, Scottish monks led by St. Aidan founded an abbey on the island of Lindisfarne, also known as Holy Island. It was continued by Saint Cuthbert, who also became the first bishop of Lindisfarne. After his death the Lindisfarne Gospels, a gospel book, were made, the monastery became a place of pilgrimage. Soon Lindisfarne became a centre of Celtic monastic culture, a place of faith, art and scholarship, famous for its writing school. From the island, the monks promoted the Christianization of England, but soon came into conflict with Roman missionaries directly commissioned by the Pope.
On 8 June 793, Lindisfarne was attacked by Vikings.
In 875 Bishop Eardulf left the monastery at Lindisfarne with the monks for fear of further Viking raids. They took with them the remains of Saints Cuthbert, Aidan, Eadberht, Eadfrith, Æthelwald and the Book of Lindisfarne.
