Vandring

Katedralen – altså en bispekirke – i byen Worcester er en meget historisk bygning med en næsten tusind år gammel kristen tradition. For opførelsen af dette Guds hus begyndte allerede Anno Domini 1084, altså kort efter den normanniske erobring af England (af Vilhelm Erobreren, tidligere hertug af Normandiet, derefter konge af England, A.D. 1066). Dette Guds hus og dermed hele bispedømmet har man, hvilket absolut ikke er usædvanligt for anglikanske katedraler, betroet et dobbelt protektorat: Først Jesus Kristus selv, Guds søn, der blev menneske, og for det andet den allerhelligste Guds moder og jomfru Maria.

Worcester Cathedral was founded in 680 AD and has been an important place of worship ever since. The cathedral you see today was built between 1084 and 1504 and represents many styles of English architecture. The Grade I-listed structure is very impressive, both on the interior and exterior.

For over 14 centuries, Worcester Cathedral has been a place of prayer for worshippers in Worcester. The magnificent cathedral took over 200 years to complete, with construction beginning in 1084 and finishing in 1504. It is built in the Norman and Perpendicular Gothic styles with an unusual chapter house and beautiful Norman crypt. You may recognise the cathedral's facade from a £20 note in circulation from 1999 until 2007.
