Norwich Cathedral

Absolutely beautiful place, lovely architecture, the staff are friendly and very happy to answer questions.
The glass is gorgeous, and there is a little space for an education area and space for little art a installations and exhibitions, the staff always ensure they are knowledgable of these too.

Amazing. Spend some time inside admiring the grandeur of this place. Take a little time to walk around the magnificent cloister. It the weather is nice, spend some time outside admiring the architecture and how people would have come into view of this place before cars and trains existed. Well worth a visit. The set up is geared for visitors visiting for the first time or a local who visits daily.

Just to see this cathedral is to be entranced. Superb inside and out.

Oh what a wonderful place. i have visited this place many a time. lots to see. Do take a camera you can get the most amazing shots.

This cathedral is breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly historic (over 900 years old!)…words really can’t do it justice. Admission is free, although donations are suggested. And you’d be an asshole not to donate IMHO! The outer courtyard is pretty and if you look up at the ceiling in the surrounding loggia, you’ll see some neat details. But inside the main part of the cathedral, you’ll be blown away by the artistry, detail, and sheer size of everything. The vaulted ceilings are insane by today’s standards and even more amazing when you think about the time period in which it was all constructed. The walls and floors are peppered with centuries-​old memorials and even some medieval paintings. The individual chapels are beautiful. As un-​religious as I am, I have to say I was really moved by the cathedral and I highly recommend a visit if you find yourself in the area.

Great Cathedral and equally great refectory

you can take a horse to water but a cathedral roof should be lead. the roof bosses at norwich are wonderful examples of early english art. because they are inaccessible they escaped the mindless destruction of the reformation iconoclasts.

A magnificant Norman cathedral which dominates the city landscape. The new extensions to the cloisters are both modern and in keeping with the ancient building and add to its beauty.

The focal point of norwich, perfect for evening strolls through to riverside road. I used to do brass and tree rubbings here as a child. Often can hear music lessons being taken by the private school kids. Very lovely way to spend an evenign with a loved one.

You haven’t visited Norwich if you haven’t visited Norwich Cathedral. I’m told it is the most visited Cathedral in the UK, and I’m not surprised. The architecture is beautiful, really dramatic and the grounds are often home to some of the most interesting arts events, especially during the Norfolk and Norwich Festival.

Up with Durham and Ely in the list of fine cathedrals, Norwich Cathedral is definitely worth a visit. Look out for the copper font made from a sugar boiler from one of the old sweet factories in the city, and make sure you have a stroll around the cloister looking up at the bosses. Step outside and explore the cathedral close, stretching down to Pulls Ferry and the river.

One of the finest buildings in East Anglia. The Norwich Cathedral is over 900 years old and is must see along with the Castle Museum if you are visiting Norwich. Entrance is free and it very easy to spend a couple of hours in there. If you are lucky you may catch on of the many special services they hold there with a full choir, which sounds amazing with the organ. Also worth a visit is the refectory, and treat yourself to a nice cup of tea and a large slice of homemade cake. Nice!

If you want to really experience this place, nab one of the volunteers for a guided tour as there are hundreds of years of history to explore here, most of it not so obvious to the untrained eye. The staff are brilliantly educated about just about every aspect of the Cathedrals history, and make the whole experience that much more enjoyable.
There’s a great sense of peace and tranquility to be found here, just a stone’s throw away from the bustle of the city itself. If you havn’t already, take the time out to just walk around and soak up the atmosphere.

loads of history, a little boring for the children but a great free place to go and have a look around and soak up all the history. very peaceful, beautiful

Simply an amazing place to go — whether you want to go for the religious aspect or not, you cannot fail to be amazed at the architecture and beauty of Norwich Anglican Cathedral and the surrounding Close.
The building itself is stunning, both outside and inside, and an hour wandering around peacefully is an hour well spent. The refectory provides excellent food and the gift shop has some lovely cards and unusual items that make beautiful presents.
On a summers day, take your lunch and a book and sit in the Cathedral Close, the perfect way to unwind in the middle of a stressful day at work.

Fantastic getaway. It’s so peaceful and quiet when you consider it’s just a stone’s throw away from Prince of Wales road. There’s a large green area to picnic of frisbee on and the grounds of the Cathedral itself as great to explore.
There’s a small shop and canteen on site if you fancy something warm to eat. The sometimes host events like the Big Draw art extravaganza. There has also been a green energy display with different modes of transport hosted in this area on a past occasion.

I always found the county I grew up in rather understate but the cathedral has the power to take your breath away. It’s well worth a visit and a listen when the choir are in.

This is a beautiful building. Well worth a look. The garden at the rear is peaceful.

A magnificent, flint-​built, mortar faced cathedral, the second highest spire in England and second largest cloisters too, the prize each time going to Salisbury!
Spend a lot of time here and see and feel history seeping from the fabric, after that go to the refectory to rebuild with a nice cup of tea and a snack :)
