Lichfield Cathedral
Latest Reviews
A lovely place to visit, make sure you visit Chapter House, The South Transept in St Michael's Chapel where there are a number of Military Memorials for both the world wars.The Herkenrode Glass 16th century windows from the Abbey at Herkenrode are stunning. After your visit to the Cathedral make sure you walk around The Close surrounding the Cathedral.

Visited today with hubby and wow what a Cathedral.
No entrance fee so we were happy to give a donation. Everyone we met was friendly and polite. However Gerald (Cathedral Volunteer) was exceptional. So much knowledge, friendly, approachable & wonderful sense of humour.
Fabulous medieval cathedral & particularly liked the Chapter House. We definitely need to return to view the library (currently under renovation).
Although the Nave was being set up for a function this evening, somehow it didn't detract from our enjoyment of this wonderful church.
Also visited The Cathedral Shop at No.9 and had a delicious lunch at Chapters, the Cafe in The Close.
Highly recommend.

The whole Cathedral area in Lichfield is gorgeous, and the Cathedral an architectural gem. We were lucky enough to arrive during a service and it was wonderful to join in the worship and absorb the atmosphere

What a wonderful cathedral in a brilliant little city. You don't have to walk too far to find it and I would make a point of visiting. There are guided tours but we didn't make it for one. You'll find 1300 years of history packed inside, with a medieval wall painting, the Herkenrode stained glass and the Lichfield Angel. It is the only medieval three spired cathedral in the UK. See what I did there? That's where the title comes in! It is free to get in but they like a donation. It is situated in The Close just across from Erasmus Darwin's house, also a must. Also there seems to be more barber's shops than anywhere I've ever been before. Oh, and I must say the navitives are really friendly

This is a charming cathedral and well worth a visit. If possible go on one of the free guided tours. Very interesting and, although a donation would be gratefully received, there's no pressure to make one.

Stunning, beautiful cathedral. Very easy to spend an hour or two mooching around here but bring your camera!

The cathedral is a must if your staying in Lichfield. Also the arboretum is a place every one should visit. You do need time as it’s surprising large . It’s a beautiful and very well kept place. The volunteer that work ther are very helpful and you will be surprised how many memorials there are.

A lovely Cathedral. It was an absolute delight to attend the full ‘Choral Eucharist’ on Sunday. The choir and organist added to the musical enjoyment of the occasion. Everyone attending the service were very friendly and happily engaged with visitors.
There was plenty to see wandering around the Cathedral. Lunch in the Chapter House was an added bonus.

Such a tranquil and peaceful place! Not normally into buildings and architecture but this cathedral is breath taking!!! I was fortunate enough to be in the congregation and the acoustics in there complemented the choir beautifully! X

My first visit to your delightfully,
serene Cathedral!
I am from Oswestry, Shropshire,
and was proudly surprised
to see my Home Town War Poet,
Wilfred Owen, featuring in your
World War 1 tribute exhibition.
I have many, many friends across the world, and whilst visiting your awesome Cathedral,
I videoed some of it , to share to them all!
The compliments I have received back
for your Cathedral
have been fantastic!
I shall certainly return again in the future!

The cathedral set in a delightful close is unique in that it possesses battlements indeed was once under siege . The church is very contained and beautifully illuminated by a broad church of coloured windows -the work on which is stunning .
It is not only the county cathedral of Staffordshire it also contains many memorabilia of the county's history .
The facade of the church is very impressive with most of the statues still in tact representing religious and royal icons . The red sandstone employed set them off so very well .
Unfortunately the library had recently been relocated but apart from that absence the church looked well used and kept .
I would strongly recommend a visit to anyone in the area .

It worths a visit. It is located in a lovely town. I had the chance to join an Easter ceremony there, and I felt part of the community. It is a place not only beautiful for the building itself but for the people I met there.
