Salisbury Cathedral
Salisbury Cathedral: Be inspired by the peace and beauty of one of Britain´s finest medieval cathedrals, Salisbury offers a warm welcome to all who visit. Set within eight acres of lawn and surrounded by historic buildings and museums within the spectacular Cathedral Close, the Cathedral is unique in being built almost entirely in one architectural style - Early English Gothic. Britain´s tallest Spire (123m / 404ft) was added a generation later. Inside the Cathedral discover nearly 800 years of history including the finest preserved Magna Carta (1215), Europe's oldest working clock (1386) and most stunning font (2008). Boy and girl choristers sing daily services. Explore the roof spaces on a tower tour, climbing 332 steps to the base of the spire, and admire magnificent views across Salisbury. NEW THIS YEAR - the Cathedral's beautiful new flowing water font, designed by sculptor William Pye, and a new West Front statue of Canon Ezra, a 20th century Sudanese martyr.
