Beautiful, the rest of the town centre is too, steeped in history with the Samuel Johnson museum plus more. Well worth a visit

The stain glass windows are beautiful and the journey they had to get there is a fascinating story. Dr Samuel Johnson's portrait by Josiah Reynolds was good to see close up .

We loved all of Lichfield - a hidden gem, and the cathedral is central to this. A relatively small cathedral close but only a short walk to river, Civil War information, Samuel Johnson museum and nice shops.

Besides Samuel Johnson's and Erasmus Darwin's houses, this is LIchfield's main attraction. The cathedral has three spires rather than the usual two, and is quite a large structure. No admission fee, but donations are requested.

Entrance to the cathedral is free and the attendants are very helpful

I recommend a visit to Lichfield, Staffordshire to take in the beauty and splendour of the Cathedral with three spires called The Ladies of the Vale. It is essential to get booked in on a guided tour to ensure that every aspect of the history is covered. Whilst in Lichfield City leave time also for visits to the Samuel Johnson Birthplace and also the Erasmus Darwin Museum.

I have been many times to the Cathedral living locally to it but I have had occasion to take Australian cousins there. They don't have anything like it at home and were overwhelmed by the architecture. It is well worth including other attractions such as Erasmus Darwin House, Samuel Johnsons Birthplace and a bite to eat in one of the many cafes in Lichfield.

Awe inspiring gothic cathedral, soaring architecture, every surface, inside and out, intricately decorated. Built to the glory of God and a must visit for everyone else passing near Lichfield. Set in a beautiful quiet close and near to the houses of Erasmus Darwin and Samuel Johnson, great minds who changed the world!

Used to live in this city for half a year and always liked walking around calm and decent city centre and The Cathedral which is very impressive, one of the best I have even seen + helpful staff.
You can pop in if you are around and also visit Dr. Samuel Johnson Birthplace, will not be disappointed, good afternoon out!

This hidden gem in Lichfield sums up how lovely Lichfield is. On first sight of The medieval Cathedral, with three spires it reminded us of Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, which had four spires.
Lichfield is a peaceful and historical place to visit, with legendary celebrities - Dr Samuel; Erasmus Darwin, physician; Statue The Captain of the sunken RMS Titanic Ship Captain Edward Smith, British naval officer @ Beacon Park; Statue of Boswell, (Dr Johnson's close friend), in the Market Square @ Lichfield.
