Recently visited Lichfield for the first time and decided to wander up to the cathedral to take a look at the exterior. Was pleasantly surprised to find that there is no entrance fee for this magnificent building. Once inside the area is huge - one of the biggest I've ever seen and you can wander around for as long as you wish without any pressure on you. Photography is not a problem although some areas do not allow the use of the flash. There is also a small gift shop and the prices are very reasonable. Would recommend anyone who visits the city to go and spend at least twenty minutes exploring this beautiful building.

I love visiting cathedrals, and Lichfield is one of my favourites. It provides the perfect combination of spiritual peace with the beauty of design and some amazing history - ask to see the replicas of The Hoard, and some of the illuminated books in their library.

This is one of the wonders of England. The only cathedral with three spires, There is nothing like it elsewhere and together with the ancient city of Lichfield it is a must see.

What a lovely place to go and visit even if you aren't religious its a place to see. Its in a lovely little market town and its free to go into you just need to give a donation. The cathedral its self has beautiful stain glass windows and by looking around you can feel the history, i used to go to visit the cathedral with my school and its just the same now as it was back then.

Lichfield Cathedral is one of the most beautiful cathedrals in England. Located in the Midlands, it has three magnificent spires which can be seen from where ever you are in the city. The interior is vast. Beautiful stain glass windows stream light down upon the huge ornate alter. Hundreds of statues adorn the outside walls. The cathedral casts its huge shadow over Minster pool creating a beauty spot to rival any in the country. Lichfield is steeped in history. The English Civil War was played out both in and around the cathedral with both Parliamentarians and Royalists holding siege there during the fighting. The Cathedral was badly damaged in one of the sieges. The Staffordshire Horde (the biggest medieval treasure to found) was discovered just a few miles from Lichfield and a replica is held at the cathedral.

Fascinating links with English history especially the civil war. Beautiful interior. The exhibition of ancient books in the Chapter House is well worth a visit. Entry is free but a contribution to expenses is requested. Café and toilets across the Close at South West end.
