An absolute treasure: Wonderful to look around, have a guided tour, and listen to a concert. Do not forget to look at the very old buildings around The Close, particularly the ones near Erasmus Darwin's House. The hundreds of statues and gargoyles that adorn the walls of the cathedral are wonderful to see. Also, the resident Peregrine Falcon protecting its territory is absolutely marvelous. Well worth a visit or two. We attended the Johns' Boys Welsh Choir concert: several of the songs were so heartfelt that I had tears in my eyes.

A truly special space. From the genuine warm welcome at the front door to the overwhelming feeling of reflective calm in the nave, Lichfield Cathedral gets to you in the very first minutes. We were so lucky to have a kind and knowledgeable guide to show us details that would have been so easily missed. The detailing in the stone carving is phenomenal. I am truly surprised that Lichfield Cathedral does not have a higher profile nationally. Well deserving of a visit.

Amazing architecture, I attended the Eucharist Service (Wednesday) which was lovely. We had to leave after so was unable to see all of the cathedral. There is a lovely cafe on the grounds, and a shop with a good selection of gifts, books, jewellery and more. 🕊️✝️

Awesome cathedral with impressive architecture, huge interior. You can walk around for free but a donation is welcome. Polite and friendly staff. Well worth a visit.

A unique breathtaking cathedral with three peaks. The walls and stained glass tell different historical stories of kings, bishops and the people who ruled these lands over the years. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend that you take more time to immerse yourself in the history that this beautiful cathedral will tell you.
