The most beautiful religious buildings Salisbury

The cathedral, built in 1333, is the largest and most beautiful in England. It is a set of lawns and old buildings. Even today, the enclosure is closed every evening and the residents each have their keys.

One of Britain's most famous cathedrals, it also boasts the tallest church spire in the UK. It was built between 1220 and 1258 in the early English Gothic style. The cloister, chapter house (which houses one of only four surviving copies of the Magna Carta), tower and spire were not completed until 500 years later. The ceiling of the nave is also beautifully painted. Behind the altar, you'll admire the highly-constructed perspectives, with their pure, perfectly-balanced lines. The arches are painted green or red, accentuating their slender appearance, while the black marble columns add rhythm to the beauty of the proportions. In the cloister, two cedar trees flourish, protected by stone galleries. In the evenings, light shines through their needles, reflecting a soft, slightly green light onto the pale grey walls beneath the bell tower... The painter Constable immortalized this architectural masterpiece and contributed to its popularity. Another must-see is England's oldest working clock. It's a must-see that's sure to leave no one unmoved!

Cathedral Close: the cathedral precinct, built in 1333, is the largest in England. It includes Mompesson House and other beautiful medieval houses. Even today, the site is closed every evening, and residents each have their own key.
