History and Symbolism of the Chalice Well in Celtic Traditions

An ancient spring flows between two hills in Glastonbury known as the Chalice Well—sometimes referred to as the Blood Well. Its steady stream of water spills 25,000 gallons every day, holding the temperature of the water steadily at 52 degrees Fahrenheit. These days, the famous well is surrounded by lush gardens. Aquifer specialists have determined that the main origin of the well lies deep within the core of the earth. Since its flow does not depend on rainfall or any type of weather, it flows faithfully day and night, never missing a second. At different times in history, the constant stream of water from the Chalice Well has saved the surrounding population from the devastating consequences of drought.

There are many myths surrounding the Chalice Well, mostly due to the rich iron content of its water, which paints the flowing liquid red. One of the better-known myths holds that Joseph of Arimathea visited the site of the well to bury two containers that held blood and water from Christ’s wounds. Stories suggest the pilgrims in King Arthur’s Court used the spring as a healing pool.

After closely examining the stones surrounding the Chalice Well during the 1960s, archaeologist Dr. Raleigh Radford concluded that they seem to be from the 12^th century and might have been salvaged and reused from a nearby Abbey that was destroyed in a fire. He also discovered that there is another space leading off the main well center that was likely built around 1750 and altered in 1820.
