'''Selby Abbey''' is a former [[Benedictines|Benedictine]] abbey and current [[Anglican]] [[Church of England parish church|parish church]] in the town of [[Selby]], [[North Yorkshire]], England. It is a member of the [[Major Churches Network]] in England.

==Monastic history==
[[File:Selby_Abbey_Nave.jpg|thumb|275x275px|The Nave]]
The church is one of the relatively few surviving [[abbey]] churches of the medieval period and although not a [[cathedral]], it is one of the largest. It was founded by Benedict of Auxerre<ref>{{cite web

}}</ref> in 1069 and subsequently built by the [[de Lacy]] family.

On 31 May 1256, the abbey was bestowed with the grant of a [[mitre]] by [[Pope Alexander IV]] and from this date was a "[[Norton_Priory#Abbey|Mitred Abbey]]". This privilege fell into abeyance a number of times, but on 11 April 1308, Archbishop [[William Greenfield]] confirmed the grant, and Selby remained a "Mitred Abbey" until the [[Dissolution of the Monasteries]].<ref name=HOY3>{{cite book |section= Houses of Benedictine monks: Abbey of Selby |title= A History of the County of York |volume= 3 |editor-first= William |editor-last= Page |location= London |year= 1974 |pages= 95–100 |via= British History Online |url= http://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/yorks/vol3/pp95-100 |publisher= Victoria County History |access-date= 20 October 2023}}</ref>

Archbishop [[Walter Giffard]] visited the monastery in 1275 by commission, and several monks and the abbot were charged with a list of faults including loose living: many complaints referred to misconduct with married women. In 1279 Archbishop [[William de Wickwane]] made a visitation, and found fault with the abbot as he did not observe the [[Rule of Saint Benedict]], was not singing mass, preaching or teaching, and was seldom attending chapter. Things had not improved much in 1306 when Archbishop [[William Greenfield]] visited, and similar visitations in later years resulted in similar findings.<ref name=HOY3/>

The community rebuilt the choir in the early 14th century, but in 1340 a fire destroyed the chapter house, dormitory, treasury and part of the church. The damage was repaired and the decorated windows in the south aisle of the nave were installed.

In 1380–1 there were the abbot and twenty-five monks.<ref name=HOY3/> In 1393 [[Pope Boniface IX]] granted an [[papal indulgence|indulgence]] to pilgrims who contributed to the conservation of the chapel of the Holy Cross in the abbey.<ref name=HOY3/>

The 15th century saw more alterations to the abbey. The perpendicular windows in the north transept and at the west end of the nave were added, and the [[sedilia]] in the sanctuary were added. One of the final additions was the Latham Chapel, dedicated to St Catherine, east of the north transept, in 1465.

In the ''[[Valor Ecclesiasticus]]'' of 1535 the abbey was valued at £719&nbsp;2s.&nbsp;6¼d (equivalent to £{{formatnum:{{Inflation|UK|719|1535|{{Inflation-year|UK}}|r=-2}}}} in {{Inflation-year|UK}}).{{Inflation-fn|UK|df=y}} The abbey surrendered on 6 December 1539. The community comprised the abbot and 23 monks. The abbot was pensioned off on £100 a year (equivalent to £{{formatnum:{{Inflation|UK|100|1539|{{Inflation-year|UK}}|r=-3}}}} in {{Inflation-year|UK}}) {{Inflation-fn|UK|df=y}}; the prior got £8 and the others between £6&nbsp;6s.&nbsp;8d. (ten [[mark (currency)|marks]]) and £5 each.<ref name=HOY3/>

==Post-monastic history==

For a time after the dissolution the church was unused, but in 1618 it became the parish church of Selby. During the [[English Civil War]] and the Commonwealth period the building suffered: the north transept window was destroyed, and the statues on the brackets in the choir were demolished. 
[[File:Tower totter in Selby Abbey.jpg|thumb|Movement in the stonework adjacent to the crossing tower]]
Like [[York Minster]], the church rests on a base of sand and has suffered from subsidence. Many sections collapsed entirely during the 17th century, including the central tower in 1690 which destroyed the south transept. The tower was rebuilt, but not the transept. In the 18th century the choir was filled with galleries, and used for services; the nave was used only for secular purposes.

The church was restored by Sir [[George Gilbert Scott]] in 1871–1873 who restored much of the nave for use, and again in 1889–1890 by his son [[John Oldrid Scott]], who restored the choir. The tower was restored in the first few years of the 20th century.

The [[reredos]] was designed by [[Robert Lorimer]] and added in 1901.<ref>Dictionary of Scottish Architects: Robert Lorimer</ref>

===The fire of 1906===
[[File:Selby Abbey after the fire of 1909.jpg|thumb|left|The abbey after the fire of 1906]]
The organ builders from [[John Compton (organ builder)|John Compton]] had been working until 11.00&nbsp;pm on Friday 19 October, and shortly after midnight on Saturday the organist [[Frederick William Sykes]] spotted flames coming from the organ chamber.<ref>''Western Times'', Monday 22 October 1906. p.4. Selby Abbey Entirely Destroyed by Fire on Saturday</ref> The organ builders had been installing a new kinetic gas engine to provide power to the new organ. Initial reports that the new organ equipment was to blame for the fire were later proved inaccurate.<ref>''Sheffield Evening Telegraph''. Friday 14 December 1906. p.&nbsp;5. The Selby Abbey Fire</ref>

The fire destroyed the roof of the choir and the belfry and peal of eight bells was also destroyed. All of the interior fittings were also destroyed but thanks to the actions of the local fire brigade, the fourteenth-century stained glass in the East window was saved.

A secondary fire broke out in the nave roof on the Sunday, but this was quickly extinguished.<ref>''Gloucester Citizen'', Monday 22 October 1906. p.5. The Fire at Selby Abbey</ref>

The abbey was rebuilt under the supervision of [[John Oldrid Scott]] at a cost of around £50,000 (equivalent to £{{formatnum:{{Inflation|UK|50000|1909|{{Inflation-year|UK}}|r=-3}}}} in {{Inflation-year|UK}}) {{Inflation-fn|UK|df=y}} and reopened in 1909. The restoration of the south transept was completed in 1912, funded by William Liversedge.

===Later twentieth century===

In 1952 the abbey was given [[Listed building|Grade I]] listed status.<ref name=EH/>

===Restorations of 2002===
In 2002 the abbey underwent an extensive restoration, costing several million pounds. Stage 6, the restoration of the [[Scriptorium]] was completed at a cost of £795,000. The £400,000 cost of restoring the South choir Aisle and the "Washington Window" was met in full by [[British American Tobacco]].<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.selbyabbey.org.uk/task.htm|title= Restoring Selby Abbey: The Challenge We Face|publisher= Selby Abbey|access-date= 23 May 2009|archive-date= 10 October 2018|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20181010181303/http://www.selbyabbey.org.uk/task.htm|url-status= dead}}</ref> [[World Monuments Fund]] committed more than $800,000 to exterior work, including roof repairs, beginning in 2002.

==The Washington Window==

A notable feature of the abbey is the fifteenth-century<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.selbyabbey.org.uk/washington_link.htm |title=Washington Window |access-date=25 April 2013 |archive-date=4 February 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130204220959/http://www.selbyabbey.org.uk/washington_link.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> Washington Window, located at the [[clerestory]] level of the quire,<ref>Selby Abbey, "The Washington Window" (leaflet available in the Abbey)</ref> which features the [[Coat of Arms of George Washington|heraldic arms of the ancestors of George Washington]], the first president of the United States. It is believed the shield is in the Abbey thanks to a financial benefaction supporting the work of the monastery at Selby from John Wessington, one of George Washington's ancestors, who was Prior of Durham from 1416 to 1446. The design is thought to be one of the oldest representations of the [[Flag of the United States]] in the world.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/9524145.selby-abbeys-stars-and-stripes-window-could-prove-a-draw-to-american-tourists/|title=Selby Abbey's Stars and Stripes window could prove a draw to American tourists|date=10 February 2012|website=York Press|accessdate=15 November 2023}}</ref>

==Organ==
[[File:Organ case by John Oldrid Scott in Selby Abbey.jpg|thumb|left|The organ at Selby Abbey, built in 1909 by [[William Hill & Son]], (south) case designed by [[John Oldrid Scott]]]]

The previous organ was installed in 1825 by Renn and Boston, in a gallery on the east side of the choir screen wall. It was rebuilt several times by Booth of Wakefield, Forster and Andrews of Hull and Conacher of Huddersfield. In 1868 the organ was rebuilt and moved to a bay in the quire. The opening recital was given by [[William Thomas Best]]. This organ was rebuilt in 1891 by James Jepson Binns of Bramley and moved again, this time to the north side of the quire. A rebuild took place by [[John Compton (organ builder)|John Compton]] in 1906, but the organ was destroyed by the great fire of that year, which nearly destroyed the abbey too.{{cn|date=October 2023}}

Following the 1906 fire<ref>{{NPOR|id=N07130 |desc=Yorkshire, North, Selby, Abbey of St. Mary and St. Germain, Selby Abbey, The Crescent|access-date= 11 September 2023}}</ref> and as part of the subsequent restoration of the Abbey, the firm of [[William Hill & Son]] was commissioned to build the current organ, completed in 1909.<ref>{{NPOR|id=N05109|desc=Yorkshire, North, Selby, Abbey of St. Mary and St. Germain, Selby Abbey, The Crescent|access-date=22 November 2023}}</ref> With 67 speaking stops and 4 manuals, most of the pipes of this instrument occupy two organ cases designed by [[John Oldrid Scott]] and placed either side of the choir stalls in the Chancel. The huge pipes of the "Pedal: 32' Double Open Diapason" lie horizontally on the floor of the Triforium overlooking the Nave. 

The first major restoration of this organ was carried out in 1950 by [[Hill, Norman and Beard]].<ref>{{NPOR|id=N05111 |desc=Yorkshire, North, Selby, Abbey of St. Mary and St. Germain, Selby Abbey, The Crescent|access-date=22 November 2023}}</ref> In the early 1960s, the Italian virtuoso [[Fernando Germani]] made several LP recordings at the Abbey of organ music by Reger, Franck and Liszt, bringing the organ to international attention. In 1975, further alterations and additions were made to the organ by John T. Jackson.

By the 2010s, the organ was showing its age and becoming increasingly unreliable. In 2014, Geoffrey Coffin and Principal Pipe Organs of York were commissioned to carry out a major restoration with Paul Hale as the adviser. The project was completed in 2016.<ref>{{NPOR|id=K01532|desc=Yorkshire, North, Selby, Abbey of St. Mary and St. Germain, Selby Abbey, The Crescent|access-date=22 November 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://paulhale.org/consultant/projects-of-significance/selby-abbey/ | title=Selby Abbey |first=Paul |last=Hale |accessdate=22 November 2023}}</ref>
