Now on: Salisbury Cathedral 750 anniversary Flower Festival, 17-21 June.

A magnificent 13th century cathedral with Britain’s tallest spire. Situated in the largest medieval close in Britain, it is surrounded by beautiful historic buildings and eight acres of lawns.
Discover the world’s best preserved Magna Carta (AD 1215) and Europe’s oldest working clock (AD 1386). Explore the roof spaces on a tower tour and be amazed by the breathtaking views.

Relax in the Refectory Restaurant, with its spectacular sight of the spire soaring high above the glass roof. Find unique gifts and souvenirs in the Cathedral shop.

For 2008, experience the 750th anniversary celebrations of the dedication of Salisbury Cathedral in 1258. An exciting programme of activities will be taking place from April to September 2008. For details please visit www.salisburycathedral.org.uk.

All visitors are welcome to attend the daily services sung by our boy and girl choristers, continuing a tradition of worship. Free guided tours of the Cathedral are available most days.
