The grade one Church of England Chester Cathedral is situated in the colourful city of Chester in the Cheshire County in the North East of England. Similar to other English cathedrals, Chester has been altered countless times. Chester Cathedral was created in 1093 and dates back from 1283 to 1537. The biggest reconstruction came amid the 19th century and implemented in the 20th century was a free standing bell tower.
Chester Cathedral sits proudly and as a major focal point for the city of Chester, it does not just hold Christian Worships. It is a popular tourist attraction and the venue is used for exhibitions, concerts, recitals and tours. Lunchtime organ recitals occur every Thursdays alongside Chester Cathedral Nave Choir concerts.
The cathedral and grounds surrounding it are accessible to visit by sole parties and large groups. Multiple places within the cathedral can be hired out for receptions, meetings and countless other events. A favourite is the Refectory café, which includes a tapestry from the 17th century, Earls of Chester paintings and a stained glass window illustrating the world's creation in six days.
