Virtual Tour of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King.

THE AMNESTY CHAPEL

In this small chapel in the West Porch a candle wrapped with barbed wire burns perpetually as a reminder of prisoners of conscience. The small wooden sculpture of Christ before Pilate by Peter Ball (b1943) is a poignant symbol of all those persecuted for their beliefs. The candlestick was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens for his uncompleted Cathedral project.
