Cathedral

Salisbury Cathedral is perhaps Britain’s finest medieval cathedral. It offers a warm welcome to the 250,000 who visit each year to marvel at the peace and beauty of the 750 year old building and admire Britain’s tallest spire. But it is much more than an historical building – above all it is a living, working church and the mother church of the Salisbury Diocese.
