Police are appealing for information after a gilded icon was stolen from a Cambridge chapel.
Between 24 and 25 September 2024, the icon of the Virgin and Child, which depicts the Virgin and Child with two archangels, was taken from the Chapel of Magdalene College.
The icon is painted on a wooden board with gold-leafed background and a red border, and measures approximately 35x25cm and 2.5cm thick.
Cambridgeshire Police said the icon holds great value to those who are connected with it, and officers would like to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and may have seen anything suspicious.
