Wells Cathedral is a magnificent example of Gothic architecture that has attracted pilgrims for nearly 850 years! It's a must-see destination while you're in Wells, offering a range of fascinating history and a brilliant programme of events and activities all year round.
Take a leisurely stroll through the cathedral and admire its stunning Gothic architecture. Don't miss the opportunity to see one of the oldest medieval clock faces in the world and the beautiful collection of medieval stained glass.
