Citadel


The Salvation Army was founded in 1869 by William Booth and his wife Catherine. It follows a Methodist Christian doctrine and was intended to deliver the three S's to the poor - Soup, Soap and Salvation. Church officials wear a military looking uniform hence the name. This is the York Citadel on Gillygate.
