Wiltshire Cathedrals & Churches

A monastery was first established on the site in 676AD, and what remains of the present building dates from the 12th Century. Now partly in ruins, the ancient abbey is still a magic place for many.

Salisbury Cathedral

Salisbury is one of the finest medieval cathedrals in Britain. It is the mother church of the Salisbury Diocese, an area which covers most of the counties of Wiltshire and Dorset.

Started in 1220 it was completed by 1258, with the Spire, the tallest in England (123m/404ft) added a generation later. Built to reflect the glory of God in stone and glass, it has always been a setting for great occasions, for huge colourful processions, a majestic and awe-inspiring church - as it has done for over 775 years
