St Albans Cathedral

One of the oldest churches in Britain! A stunning place to spend quality time in St Albans.There’s a cafe and a gift shop inside. It’s pretty marvellous to see how well kept this place is, kudos to the people who take care of it and donate for its upkeep.The architecture is marvellous. There’s a stunning park nearby and a lake.It’s close to city center so you can find tons of places to eat and hangout. Definitely recommend.

Simply love this Cathedral... came here 2 years ago and wanted to return again... beautiful high ceilings and because it is October, we saw and chatted to the flower ladies "

Boasting the oldest Cathedral tower in Britain, it's a very impressive sight on the approach to the entrance. We arrived just before 3pm and there was an organ recital due to start so we soaked up the atmosphere and stayed to listen for a while. I think had we stayed longer and been able to look around properly I would have enjoyed what else the Cathedral has to offer. I love looking around Cathedrals and Churches so I would definitely go back.

A dream come true for me, to have the privilege to be able to actually visit this special house,. I was given the most amazing tour and the explanation to all my many questions explained so professionally and kindly. Being disabled I was amazed to be shown a special lift that the gentleman guide assisted me to use. This made my experience a very easy mobility transfer. Me sincere thank's to Neville my guide. Many thanks, Arnold.

A lovely place to visit. An extraordinary building with a 1000 years history. We even witnessed a coral concert. Beautiful architecture, interactive activities, panels explaining the history, loads of volunteers to help and tours available for free, donations welcome. At the end of visit you can have a lovely meal in the church caffe looking at the park nearby. A great experience.

A very lovely cathedral which mesmerising stained glass windows, skyscraper high ceilings and detailed carvings. Lots of useful information boards scattered around which help you to learn more about this grand cathedral. Lots of choices in the gist shop and a nice looking cafe. I was lucky enough to enter when their choir were singing and they sounded marvelous. I would go there again and you should to.

Very impressive cathedral matched by the beautiful grounds outside.Charming staff inside giving helpful information .It is a place of worship which embraces you with open arms .The choral music enhanced our visit.We were permitted to take our dog inside to our amazement. No entry fee but it is recommended to put a little donation towards the upkeepI would highly recommend a visit.

Free entry, although donations suggested or donation boxes in every little corner, there is also a tour - not sure how often, but on a Sunday it was twice during mid afternoon, but didn't have time to take part it - it was stated that it runs about 1hour. Did not know much about it beforehand, were visiting in neighbouring town, but didn't expected to find such a big church in a small village/town - well, its a cathedral*. Beautiful architecture and floors, decorations, few/some signs to explain what you're seeing. If in the area, think it is worth a visit, nearby is a large park and a pub in-between, if interested in a walk.

Great cathedral in the centre of this wonderful city, there are guides that take you on a tour roughly an hour in length.Check times of the tours with the help desk manned by friendly staff.Great sounding organ from 1962 that was recently refurbished.They have concerts in the cathedral on various dates during the year, please check St Albans Cathedral website.The usual services during the week and weekends taking place in the mornings, midday and early evening.Great cafe serving lunch, cakes and tea or coffee, and a wonderful shop for gifts or to treat yourself.I adore this Cathedral and always go there whenever I am in St Albans.Please visit this wonderful Cathedral and support it by giving some of your loose change or donate whatever amount with a contactless card.Light a candle or write a message on a card and post it on the board, maybe it will be read out at a service.Go to a service to experience the spiritual wellbeing and sing a few songs with the congregation.
