Our Story - COB at Damanhur 2019

Church of Burn at Damanhur April 2019

In April 2019, a group of 69 Pilgrims embarked on a journey from the Cerne Abbas Giant in Dorset—a chalk figure famously known for its 7-foot erection—to CERN in Geneva. This Pilgrimage is aptly named "Cerne2Cern" or, playfully, "Hardon2Hadron." It was birthed by the imagination and will power of Daisy Campbell and the dreams of Kate Alderton.

On their way to Geneva, the Pilgrims spent two days in the spiritual community of Damanhur in Northern Italy. After exploring the Temples of Humankind and performing for the community, Pilgrims offered their sacrifice in an open-air Church of Burn.

The full account of this extraordinary journey, titled Barefoot in Bollingen and Dreaming is available exclusively to subscribers of The Vestry.
