Visited the cathedral after dark for their 'Space' event. This was to celebrate the 50 year anniversary of the moon landing. An unusual event in such a religious setting! However, the 'son et lumiere' show was quute breathtaking. It highlighted the architecture and used the space creatively.
I returned a couple of days later for a 'normal' tour.

My experience of the Cathedral was rather esoteric, being a member of a visiting choir singing there. However, I also experienced the building as a typical visitor, and was equally impressed in both guises. Staff and volunteers are uniformly helpful and welcoming and the building itself, which can be seen from across the city, was wonderful. The current moon exhibition meant that some of the Grand vistas inside were rather cluttered and the nave felt rather like a tourist attraction than a place of worship. However, the east end of the building more than made up for it.

Enjoyed looking round this cathedral and learning more about it's history. Volunteers were friendly and helpful and it is nice that you give a donation and not a set entry fee. The current space exhibition gave added interest as we looked round. The stonework inside and outside is amazing as is the wood carving inside.

Zeer de moeite waard om te bezoeken, combineer dit dan met het huis van Erasmus Darwin met tuin tegenover de kerk ingang.

Don't miss this magnificent Cathedral in the Midlands. An hour will reward the visitor for a lifetime. Be sure to lift all of the literature on display as there's plenty to read later. Good shop, donations accepted for the church's upkeep.

Beautiful cathedral that you can spend a few hours at in a visit if you go to Lichfield. I went for an evening event so I didn't get to enjoy seeing the cathedral inside during the daytime. There is a lovely coffee shop nearby called Chapter's where you can get refreshments. One of the best cathedrals I've visited in the UK.

Set in an attractive unspoilt cathedral close, this beautiful building is well worth a visit. The three spires are very distinctive and the stone carvings of berobed characters on the outside of the building are in wonderful condition. The stained glass is stunning and the vaulted roof spectacular. (Having just read the novel The Pillars of the Earth about the people who built such buildings, it is even more awe inspiring)
The evening we visited there was the extra treat of a light show. The juxtaposition of the modern with the ancient worked brilliantly. Highly recommended.

What a beautiful example of an English Cathedral! Last night we were amazed by the art installation 'Space'.... There are other such shows throughout the year.... Not to be missed!
