Lichfield cathedral towers over the city with its triple steeples. If you think the outside architecture is craftsmanship you will be more than impressed with the inside.
The Stained Glass windows are superb and there are plenty of interesting tombs.
The altar is a work of art as is most of the interior and these craftsmen did it by hand, you would be hard pressed to see craftsmen of this caliber today.
Take a close look at the carved figures on the outside and think how long it must have taken to achieve.
The interior is full of beautiful carvings.
Behind the Cathedral is a lovely lake and grounds and behind that the main council car park which charges £1 per hour. For sat nav users this is on Bird Street. and all this just two minutes walk away.
Admission to the Cathedral is free but worth a donation.

Also, just a few minutes walk is the city center with a good range of shops and. But take the time to explore as you will find a few hidden gems around.

Spend some time to appreciate the amazing exterior of this marvellous building but do not miss the wonderful stained glass inside.

It's difficult to grasp that this place of worship dates back to the 6th Century. Steeped in history, it sets in stone (!) the progress of Christianity in England. We had the benefit of an official guide who pointed out so much detail. Without this help it may be difficult to grasp the significance of this extraordinary monument

Lichfield is a small city and the Cathedral dominates it. Lovely cathedral with so much history and atmosphere. I stopped off on a journey up North and was conveniently close to M6. Nice café just down the road too.

A great morning spent visiting a massive medieval church (free of charge!!), which contains plenty of history to take in. The sheer size of the church with its detailed exterior is truly intimidating as it towers over the town of Lichfield.

An absolutely gorgeous mediaeval cathedral in picturesque Lichfield. Worth a detour and a couple of hours to explore.

We were greeted by a lovely woman who ensured the child with us had the specially designed children's trail guide and told us about and where to find the exhibition with the Turner painting that we had specifically come to see.
We had a look around the entire Cathedral and spent around 45m-1h.
Around the cathedral were interactive information points which were interesting.
We all enjoyed our visit.

I would have given it six stars, as it's simply a magnificent Gothic style Cathedral. Normally, when I'm here, I've usually been herding a group of teenagers, and ensuring that they're both well behaved and respectfully quiet. Such a pleasure to wander around on my own, especially with the added bonus of the Turner Exhibition.

On our stay at Swinfen Hotel we went into Lichfield and visited the Cathedral which is free entry. Inside was beautiful with lots of history all around but it is the Stain glass windows that make this Cathedral which are stunning .

Although not normally in to this kind of stuff, we loved the cathedral. There was a Turner exhibition on at the time, and also lots of history on local military, the cathedral itself and its importance to the local community.
