I haven't been inside the cathedral for around ten years. It is an absolute work of art though. Built in the twelfth century and surviving (just about) until today. It was damaged in the civil wars and Charles II gave money for it to be restored, which took a while, but now it is once again a masterpiece.

Currently, the cathedral is being used as a vaccination centre, but once they reopen, I will definitely be going inside again.

Cathedral turns into a great Music venue.
Saw Rumer and her band. Sound was good. Welcomed by the Cathedral volunteers.

Doesn’t look preserved very well, lots of erosion, that should be restored better. However, the area around the park is nicely kept with a diverse range of wildflowers and local plants.

Lichfield Cathedral, located in Staffordshire, England, is the UK's only medieval three-spired cathedral. Dedicated to St Chad and St Mary, it features stunning Gothic architecture, 8th-century treasures like the Lichfield Gospels, and free general admission (donations welcome).

Beautiful cathedral. Perhaps not in the first-tier among the English cathedrals (to which I would reserve the likes of Durham, Salisbury, and my personal favourite, which is Lincoln), but still a lovely building to visit.

On the plus side, entry is free.

Great events venue for the Lichfield Festival. The architecture of the building itself is really worth a visit, the ambience inside is really calming. A very thought provoking and reflective place to visit.

Only went once 50yrs ago. Beautiful. But...how many people know that this Cathedral was built and paid for by Roman Catholics? Stolen at the Reformation, it belongs to Catholics, as does Canterbury Cathedral, York Minister, and many other Cathedrals and Churches, which were all built before Henry VIII. Now in the hands of the Church of England which only started 500 years ago and who claim them as their own? As Jesus said, Seek the truth (of history) and you will find it. Read THE STRIPPING OF THE ALTARS by Prof Eamon Duffy, and THE HISTORY OF ENGLAND: THE TUDORS PART II by Peter Ackroyd which tells of the vision Elizabeth I had weeks before she died. Finally, THE GREAT UNFROCKED 1000 YEARS OF CHURCH SCANDAL by Matthew Parris. The history of the Church matters. Saint John Henry Newman, a convert from Anglicanism to the Catholic Church, wrote, 'If every Protestant knew their history they would instantly cease to be Protestant'. People may like to read his books. Jesus founded ONE Church, the Catholic Church, 2000 yrs ago. He did not found Protestantism, of which there are now 45,000 different denominations, all stemming from the Church of England, which started only 500 years ago. Division is never from God. The last prayer of Jesus was that we would all be ONE. Will Protestants grant Him His wish? Will all Catholics worship Him in truth? Will we ever be ONE - in the Catholic Church? Souls are being lost because of our division and Jesus is grieved. He needs consoling. Are we going to love and console Him and become ONE?

Lichfield Cathedral – almost 900 years old! ⛪ Built to honour Saint Chad, the gentle saint who walked everywhere instead of riding. Every stone holds centuries of history right here in Staffordshire!

Amazing Cathedral with a very long history in lovely surroundings. Concerts and special events throughout the year. Free entrance but donations much needed for maintenance and upkeep.

We had a lovely welcome from the volunteers. Very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Entry was free, but they encourage donations. We'll definitely come back to to go up the tower, which looked fun but was fully booked. The cathedral has a fascinating history and it was good to see it being used as an art gallery for temporary exhibits, concerts and as a community hub. So take a look on the website to see what's on and book a tower tour. They even had a room for children to play in. A very peaceful building with lots to explore. The Chapter House Room and Sacristy were interesting to go into although both spaces had an odd feeling about them like you could feel a heaviness inside your head. So we didn't linger long. Once outside the grounds we sat on the many benches and it felt very uplifting. We wondered if the cathedral was designed to be like that, to feel the awe of God inside and then have an uplifting feel when leaving. Who knows. Fun to think about anyway!

We did the climb on the chime tour. Such a wonderful experience. We climbed up into the heart of the cathedral and took in the spectacular views. My kids and I were amazed. The tour guides, George and Saundra, were so knowledgeable and easy to talk too. This cathedral is absolutely stunning. Thank you for such a great day.
