ALL ABOUT MARY JONES

This website is where you can find out all about Mary Jones: what she thinks,
where she will go next, who she is.




WELCOME TO MARY JONES PILGRIM CENTRE

In 1800, after saving money for 6 years, a 15-year-old girl called Mary Jones
walked 26 miles from Llanfihangel-y-Pennant to Bala to buy a Bible, a book she'd
been longing to own for years. Her journey inspired the establishment of British
and Foreign Bible Society.

Mary Jones Pilgrim Centre tells her story, and the story of her legacy.

Mary Jones Pilgrim Centre is a visitor and education centre that tells the story
of both Mary Jones and Thomas Charles, who was one of the founding members of
British and Foreign Bible Society. The centre also explores the impact of the
world’s bestselling book on both Wales and the world.

Step back in time, follow Mary's journey, and explore what happened next through
multimedia and interactive displays, exhibits and activities. See Thomas
Charles’ ink well and pay a visit to his grave.

Located on the edge of Llyn Tegid in a redeveloped Grade 2 listed building, the
Mary Jones Pilgrim Centre with its picnic area, children’s playground and
facilities, offers a great day out for children and adults alike.
