It is a mighty 2000 year old cathedral and the second largest Gothic cathedral in Northern Europe after Cologne Cathedral. It would even fit the Leaning Tower of Pisa from Italy! Even from the outside, it is a marvellous sight 🤩 . The imposing Gothic cathedral from the 13th century with its extensive nave is famous for its stained glass windows (128!!! Some 900!!! years old!) from the 14th-16th centuries. The east window is the size of a tennis court, making it the largest area of medieval glass art in the world. The so-called Five Sisters window consists of five lancet windows, the largest stained glass windows in England. Each of them is almost 17 metres high and 1.5 metres wide. The two bell towers are still in full operation with 56 bells 🔔. Wow! Please note: If you want to visit, be sure to book tickets in advance! Kisses 😘
