Résumé : |
Salisbury is unique amongst medieval English cathedrals, built within one century with no substantial later additions. The buildings itself is remarkable, a testimony to the faith and practical skill of those who erected it. This guide will tell you much about its history and architecture.
But it is much more than an historical monument. It is the Cathedral Church of the Salisbury dioceseand so the Mother Church of several hundred parishes in Wiltshire and Dorset. It is a centre of pilgrimage for hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. Every day, week in week out, for century after century, God is worshipped here. Above all this is a place of prayer.
I hope that reading ths guide will help you to look at the building with new eyes, to enjoy its history and to experience its atmosphere of workship. |
