We chose to visit Southwell Minster today and a very worthwhile way to spend some time. The hosts in the Minster were especially friendly and helped the visiter to enjoy their time in the building.

Below is an extract from their website: https://www.southwellminster.org

For more than 900 years Southwell Minster has been opening its doors to welcome visitors, pilgrims and worshippers. We have placed hospitality in the name of Jesus Christ as being at the heart of what we want to offer the 100,000, or so, people, who come in a typical year. As well as being a beautiful and fascinating historic building, Southwell Minster is a community of clergy, other workers and many worshippers, contributing to the public life and private lives of the town and the whole diocese.

We are delighted that the Chapter House has reopened, after the installation of a new cantilever lift which provides full access to this glorious part of the Minster.

Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome inside the Minster, its grounds and gardens.
