Lichfield Cathedral Reviews

Had my covid-19 injection here today, feeling blessed that I've had my first inoculation, a big thank you to the cathedral and NHS staff who made my visit a pleasant one.

Second time I've visited and never got to go in. Not found anything on website either day to say no visiting. Very disappointed. Will review when I get to go in there.

This is a splendid location with its imposing facade where many characters are sculpted. The interior is epic with its lofty roof. The stained glass windows at the sanctuary end are impressive. This cathedral was caught up in the civil war and was restored afterwards. The spires are seen from the herb garden of Darwin's house in Lichfield.

Spectacular and breath-takingly beautiful! I was in awe of such rich history, and deep spiritual feeling I got from the Lichfield Cathedral! We visited for the "100 year Celebration of WW1", with the laser light show and grand exhibits. So very moving to be a part of this wonderful show. This was the highlight of my first trip to Lichfield, England with my husband in his hometown, to honor his grandfather who served in WW1. My favorite place in Lichfield! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience! God Bless!

Attended the Lichfield Cathedral Illuminations for the first time. What a spectacular event both outside and inside the Cathedral. Thankfully the weather was good so we got the full benefit of the 15 mins light show on the exterior of the building. I wasn't expecting there to be anything special inside but there was a fabulous cloud of doves of peace made by local school children and lit with changing lights. Along the outer aisles was the Christmas tree walk - dozens of decorated trees sponsored by local groups and businesses. The alter was lit with light changing patterns of stars. Awe- inspiring.

Lovely Cathedral, free entry which makes a change, well worth a visit.

Went there to watch the snowman show in Dec and not for praying as I m Buddhist. I think they have Sunday church but they welcome visitors to visit.

Lovely cathedral to visit. Great history! Definitely worth visiting.

Interesting place to go around. Also a nice city with places of interest to look at.

Go see only original triple spired cathedral in the world.

This was another of their light and music shows which are very good , this one was to do with the end of the first world war, their Christmas shows are well worth a visit

An amazing building steeped in history and well worth a visit.

Truly lovely and inspiring place. That all Dioceses could be like this one!

l historic cathedral with 3 spires set in a lovely close.great resturant nearby

Fantastic cathedral and very knowledgeable volunteers.

Beautiful gothic architecture and if you look at everything closely it's really fascinating and that's just the outside.

Enjoyed looking around the cathedral very nice stone work on the outside

Great place to visit. Check their service schedule before. You are allowed to visit during service.

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!

A beautiful building. In a lovely city. Free entry but they do ask for donations. Only fair considering the couple of hours you can easily stay in there. The staff are all friendly. There were a number of tours going on during our visit. Each guide oozing information about the history and design. The craftsmanship is absolutely outstanding in this place. I highly recommend visiting

An absolutely incredible Cathedral.
The detail of the carvings is absolutely amazing

Standing in front of it and looking up is an incredible sight. A truly beautiful building.

Well worth a visit

Breathe taking. What a magestic building.. I could spend all day looking at the amazing craftmanship that has gone into each piece of stone, marble and glass.

The big pull to Lichfield right in the center easy to find plenty of places to park that's are within a 5 minute drive. The park is very close and well worth a walk in after or before

Great place to kill a couple of hrs. Architecture is amazing. Really beautiful Cathedral.

It is just so peaceful and filled with Gods spirit.

A beautiful example of a British Cathedral, friendly volunteers on hand to give information about the history of the place.

We couldn't go in due to having no mask but looks amazing from the outside, very impressive

Its a quick on and out situation but it is a stunning building

Beautiful Cathedral inside and out! Very clean and love the fact there is information points everywhere

Magnificent Cathedral one of a few in the land many many years old

Local sandstone thirteenth century Cathedral with three spires known as 'the ladies of the vale'. The West front is adorned with statues of biblical saints and Kings not unlike Wells Cathedral and tours are regular. Museum of the Staffordshire Hoard housed in the Chapter house. Entry is completely free and a Cathedral shop is within. Cafe and clean toilets are in the close. Parking is reserved within the confines of the close, but there is a short walk to the town car parks passed the lake. Statue to the Captain of the Titanic is park area near by.

Stunning architecture outside, didn't get inside, but I'm sure it's interior matches the external grandeur.

Beautiful Cathedral. We attended the Christmas morning service & were made most welcome.

A hugely imposing building set in a small close with very limited parking. Magnificent inside with a variety of decorations and a huge inside space - perfect for the wide variety of musical activities on offer. A must see!

Beautiful building amazing carved statues on front
Calm and restful interior.

Lovely place to go in the summer. Weather you simply just enjoy having lovely surroundings or appreciate architecture.

One of the most beautiful gothic cathedral in West Midlands. I think that the first striking thing that you can notice is the wider and heavy facade, very different from the usual vertically slender gothic. The indoor, in particular the right part of the central nave from the transept door, is characterized by golden decorations and high ogival cross vault. The original cathedral was destroyed during Civil War and so, actually, the architectural style is neo gothic.

Beautiful cathedral but didnt have enough time to look around

Beautiful light show. Christmas tree festival was lovely too. Well worth it

Lovely cathedral to look around. They put on lots of events too

Amazing building and lots of history. I could of stayed there all day.

Lovely cathedral, worth the guided tour is worth waiting for.

Interesting old church, worth a visit when visiting Lichfield.

Lovely place very peaceful, check out my photos inside the cathedral at night during a light exhibition of the world.

Piecefull time in good surroundings.
Well worth a visit .

Beautiful Cathedral. We went to have a look at the walk on the moon exhibition, kids enjoyed it and found looking around interesting.

A beautiful Cathedral in a lovely surrounding with lake and antique shops just a stone throw away. Well worth a visit with great value cathedral hotel just 10 mins walk away

Amazing light show Space - God, the Universe and Everything at Lichfield Cathedral, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing.

Lovely place very peaceful Windows absolutely brilliant well worth a visit

Wow! What a beautiful place this is. We both loved our day out exploring this cathedral. The vaulted roof is just spectacular. Wonderful little gift shop as you leave and museum. Stay around for prayers it is very calming and peaceful.
