Worcester Cathedral

I've been wanting to share with everyone this amazing cathedral that we love to visit right here in Worcester. I think one of the reasons we like it is because it's free to visit!

Worcester Cathedral has been a place of prayer and worship since 680 AD. The present building was started in 1084. We've been told by a member here that the Worcester Cathedral inspired Brigham Young and that's how parts of the design of the Salt Lake Temple came about.

   

The stain glass windows are beautiful. Unfortunately the pictures don't capture what you see in person.

You can see a little more detail on this one.

This is a picture of a portion of the ceiling inside the cathedral.

We have been so fortunate to be able to see things like this here in England. The buildings here are so much older than the United States. That's so crazy to think!!
