More model informationRepton is the cradle of Christianity in the Midlands. Christians have worshipped on this site since 653 AD, when Elfleda, the bride of Peada, son of King Penda of Mercia, introduced Christianity to his father’s kingdom at Repton.
Repton crypt, dating from the first half of the 8th century, is of exceptional interest. Constructed perhaps as a baptistery, later a royal mausoleum, then a place of pilgrimage to St Wystan, it is one of the oldest and most important examples of Anglo-Saxon architecture to survive intact. Sir John Betjeman described it as “holy air encased in stone”.Source http://reptonchurch.uk/
