Lichfield Cathedral Reviews

A lovely place find aloft out over your area churches

Lichfield Cathedral is a giant amongst all others around. It has served people and the Lord for over 1,300 years. It is a journey through history and it has been through fires, wars and rebuildings. The latest being a gothic masterpiece.

Lovely building and clearly well used by the community. Web site advertised tour cancelled due to a paid for your taking precedence so watch for that but a very helpful lady did give us a quick tour for which we were most grateful. Well worth a visit.

An interesting place with lots of history, brush up on your Latin you'll need it to read some of the inscriptions

Impressive Gothic cathedral with three spires close to the city centre. Unlike some religious buildings this one has a happy, busy feel to it. Welcoming staff and free admission although a donation towards the maintenance costs would be welcome.

A beautiful cathedral. Watch Internet for events programme.

A beautiful, serene cathedral..it's surroundings are also so pleasing.

What a fabulous building and with no entry fee it is a rarity amongst cathedral nowadays

Stunningly beautiful architecture with a great sense of history, I'm not a religious person, but this place has a real sense of calm and belonging.

Beautiful historic Cathedral. A must visit in Lichfield. Opposite Erasmus Darwins' House & Museum. He was the Grand Father of Charles Darwin.

God has many houses..this is up there with gracelands and the playboy mansion.

A place to feel at PEACE...non judgemental just whole and loved......the Cathedral is breathtakingly beautiful inside & out....the LIGHT that shines through to each different dimension capturing the essence of the beauty within.....the HEART speaks volumes

Deducted one star because of the constant pressure to donate on entry even when local to Lichfield but it's still a wonderful cathedral in a lovely Close

If anyone is interested in Church architecture or even just unusual old buildings then spent a little time in and around this beautiful cathederal and wonder at the incredible structures and stained glass windows if nothing else. I am in awe of the incredible skills of the artisans of the period when this building was contructed.

Lovely place, great service, beautiful choir, felt a little awkward because I can't stand up during the service and people looked at me

A stunning unique medieval cathedral. Packed with treasures and the outside is a mini Wells with all its carving.
A peaceful setting and very friendly staff make it a place you won t regret visiting.. if you talk to the staff you will learn so much.
They don t charge to enter but ask for a donation

Definitely an awe-inspiring place to visit. The choir was practising at the time too. My small granddaughter asked why we had brought her into a palace!

Beautiful West Midlands cathedral and one of the oldest in the region.

A favourite.....stunning place and look out for their events throughout the year too.

Love this place, always a sense of peace here as well as history, there are guide books on sale for any information you might need. Worth a visit at Christmas when a lovely display of Christmas trees are on show to the public to raise funds for local charities.

The ww1 & suffrage exhibitions are worth a visit. Also donations to enter - worth it for low waged and families.

great building and architecture. and free to enter.

Beautiful architecture, dedicated to saint Chad. Medieval in construction however the cathedral was decimated during the English civil war due to its highly defensible location in the close. It's the only cathedral in England to have 3 remaining spires and can be seen from all over the city. Is well worth a visit and is a wonderful day out! Nearby is the pool which is overlooked by the cathedral and makes a great place for a picnic. Definitely worth a visit and full of history! There are a few pieces collected from the Staffordshire hoard on display which was an interesting surprise also.

Well worth a visit any time of year.
Usually have something going on
Poppy display . Gutted I missed it.
Christmas tree event
I've been several times but always find new things.
You can go for the historical visit or spiritual.
Moves me every time!

Incredible as you walk around the exterior, the sculptures of the saints are multiple and incredibly impressive. Walking the vista is breathtaking. The carvings, the whole of the interior is such an awe inspiring dedication to their God. There are multiple chapels, and the access allowed is incredible as many places of worship significantly restrict the areas you can enjoy, Not here! Whilst we were there a choir was rehearsing and the acoustics were breathtaking. A must visit for anyone of any faith, or none, to truly enjoy an incredible historic and architectural achievement that we can all enjoy. I hope you are lucky enough to hear a choir even close to the harmonic beauty of the one we enjoyed (by chance). I am truly glad that we "dropped by when we were in the area".

I absolutely loved the Advent Sunday, all souls day and All Saints day, a very moving experience . Remembering dear friends lost, my own personal journey, and reflecting on life itself. Very sad the Poppy fields was cancelled I was so looking forward to this, however I get great, inner peace and strong spiritual experience every time I visit the Cathedral . God bless all of us amem.

Beautiful building always see new things when I visit

Wonderful place. We had a warm and friendly welcome from staff on a wet day! Looking forward to visiting again.

Beautiful three spire cathedral. It dominates Lichfield and the surrounding area. The 'ladies of the vale" can be seen from quite a distance as you come into the town.

Lovely place. Take time to look closely at the pulpit.

So many different exhibitions on throughout the year and their artist in residence does an amazing job at providing so many different things. The light shows that they have are aware winning and rightly so, with the while outside and inside of the cathedral transformed. With so many cathedrals charging for entry these days, it's refreshing to know that there is no barrier of entry and only a donation is asked for i8

Wonderful! Must do, all worked with angels carved in all its length, and a chapel all worked in high relief.

Imposing building atmospheric surroundings in peaceful square. Friendly helpful staff. Make sure you see the Angel.

It's a small thing but please salute the colours the staffs regiment thanks

Really beautiful, stunning, peaceful location to take stock and recognise the blessings we have in life and to hand over to God all that concerns us.

An incredible place - you have to go inside to fully appreciate how good it is. Amazing history surrounds it and the architecture is staggering.

Fantastic place to visit excellent architecture and really worth going to a mass

Absolutely astonishing building from the outside and so beautiful inside.

Frankly astonishing! It's massive & free to view and an architectural work of art with buttresses! Well worth a visit. See if you can spot the change of direction of the far end.

The best cathedral in England good place to spend the day free entry only ask for a donation to maintain the cathedral

A must to see as part of your visit to this relaxing little city

Lovely building ,English Kings on the walls outside.

Awesome building. Helpful staff. Lovely atmosphere.

A very beautiful place of worship to visit. With a 1300 year history it is brimming with things to see and do. From tiny people's messy church to celebration of services daily and concerts and historical lectures. Week worth a visit. With only a request for a donation which you can afford.

Visited for the Christmas illumination and was brilliant despite the rain! But worth a visit any time of year

As stunning inside as out! Whether religious or not, an outstanding place to visit.

Beautiful place, full oh history and architectural art.

Beautiful building.Lots of history.Loved being there.

Stunning Gothic cathedral that never fails to impress, some fascinating artifacts to see inside, all in beautiful surroundings. Well worth a visit!
