Tour of Rarely Seen parts of the Cathedral

This is an opportunity to view some parts of this very special building that are rarely seen or hidden in plain sight.

This will include remaining medieval paintings with which the Cathedral would have been covered in the 12th century.

We will let you know which places that we visit can be seen at other times, once you know where and how to look. This will include the only image of the nativity throughout the Cathedral.

After the Tour there will also be the facility to visit the Cathedral Library for anyone on the Tour who asks for this. The Cathedral Library is usually open to the public on Monday and Friday afternoons.

The Cathedral Shop in the nave will be open on the days of the Tours between 10am - 4pm. Books, cards, prints and gifts are on sale with lots more information and images of what you will have visited.

The Cathedral Refectory will be open 10.00am to 4pm, serving coffee, teas, hot chocolate, Welsh cakes in a range of sweet and savoury flavours, and other light lunches with mulled wine.

All visitors are also welcome to join the Cathedral worship services.
