This Norman-style cathedral has been through long periods of construction and reconstruction since work on it began in 1096. Built from flint and mortar and covered with limestone, the imposing cathedral towers over the rooftops of Norwich. Activities and events open to the public are held throughout the year and everyone is welcome to attend daily worship services. Free guided tours are offered Monday through Saturday, but a detailed guidebook is also available for those who want to explore on their own. Parents will appreciate the Explorer Backpacks for kids whose contents make learning about the cathedral an adventure.
