King Æthelstan Project

King Æthelstan, reigning from 924 to 939 and crowned in 925 in Kingston, was the first king to rule a unified England, predating William the Conqueror by over a century. His reign marks a pivotal chapter in English history.

Based on an original maquette of King Æthelstan by renowned sculptor Andrew Sinclair, this project uses the VR and AR platform to create an immersive experience that highlights King Æthelstan’s reign and the Saxon period. By blending historical accuracy with state-of-the-art digital interaction, the initiative seeks to educate, engage, and entertain audiences.
