    St Mary’s is a striking Grade I-listed church in the heart of Cerne Abbas. The church was built in the 14th century, extended in the 15th century, and the tower was added in the 16th century. Inside the chancel, you can observe 14th-century wall-paintings that show four scenes from the life of St John Baptist.
