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.

The cathedral—a bishop's church—in the city of Worcester is a building steeped in history, with a Christian tradition spanning nearly a thousand years. Construction of this church began in 1084, shortly after the Norman conquest of England (by William the Conqueror, formerly Duke of Normandy, then King of England, in 1066).
