Official account of Salisbury Cathedral, a living church and home to the 1215 Magna Carta, Britain’s tallest spire and the world's oldest clock.
Salisbury Cathedral’s spire is the tallest in Britain, reaching the impressive height of 123m! It is no wonder that it can be seen for miles around and plays such a significant part of the surrounding landscape. Photograph by Ash Mills
- We've waited 38 years for this view! With the scaffolding fully removed from the Cathedral's East End, we can now admire the original beauty of the entire exterior as it would have looked in the 14th century after the Spire was added. 📸: Martin Cook
- A sign of hope! Our medieval interior has been transformed into a vaccination centre. We’re very proud to be working with the NHS on the #COVID19Vaccine programme. 📷: Ash Mills
- Today marks a momentous anniversary for our Cathedral. #OnThisDay exactly 800 years ago, the foundation stones of our beautiful building were laid. #800years #Salisbury2020
- On occasion we allow drones to be used over the Cathedral and Close and we’re often blown away by the aerial shots! Photo by Declan Spreadbury. #incrediblelandscape #Salisbury #timeforwiltshire
- Alleluia! Christ is risen. He is risen indeed. Alleluia! From all of us at Salisbury Cathedral, we wish you a happy and blessed Easter. 📸: Martin Cook
- Lost on their way, some unexpected travellers managed to enter our closed Cathedral. Luckily our Head Verger was able to help them find a safe route through. #DuckRescue
00:00 - We would have kept this photo of our 15th century library all to ourselves, but we didn't want to be shelfish #LibraryShelfieDay
- As we prepare to reopen for public worship, we wanted to share a message of #Hope. Using 1,000 candles, we wrote this message in the same space inside our historic building where thousands of people have received the #COVID19Vaccination.
- We have lift off! In this remarkable new footage we captured the moment that Osmund, named after the second bishop of Salisbury, made his first flight away from the nest. How long before his siblings follow suit? Watch the live stream here: bit.ly/2ynYxyl
