The Mithraeum of Rudchester was discovered in 1844 on the brow of the hill outside the roman station.
The name of the Mithraeum of the Seven Gates refers to the doors depicted in the mosaic that decorates the floor, symbolising the seven planets through which the souls of the initiates have to pass.
