Welcome to Hereford Cathedral

Hereford Cathedral is full of surprises. It houses many treasures: the world-famous Mappa Mundi, the Chained Library, wonderful carvings in stone and wood, fine tapestries, and beautiful stained glass - many monuments and relics of the lives of faithful Christians who have worshipped here for over eight centuries.

Today the cathedral is still a place for worship and prayer, as well as a destination for those who come to learn more about its history and savour its unique atmosphere.

Welcome from Michael Tavinor the Dean

Welcome to Hereford Cathedral. This beautiful building is the home of a community which has worshipped and worked together here continuously for well over 1200 years.

It is a place where the mission of the church to proclaim Christ's love is central, and therefore the community has always warmly welcomed visitors. We all hope that you enjoy your visit.

The Very Revd Michael Tavinor
Dean of Hereford
