Cathedral Church of Gloucester

She is a beauty with her vaulted ceilings and cloisters. Has been parading about for over a thousand years Showing off her English gothic architecture. Cathedral Church of St. Peter and the Holy and Invisible Trinity. We have seen her in films and movies – The Hollow Crown, Doctor Who, Sherlock, and Harry Potter. She houses at Gloucester, Gloucestershire, UK. She was once a pilgrimage for Christian seekers. King Henry the Eighth established her current choir in 1539. Today her choir boasts thirty-eight choristers and twelve adult singers. So when you walk through, you are a historian, so much has gone on. She is magnificent with her beautiful stained glass windows. Her organ was constructed in sixteen hundred and sixty-six. She has been the site of graduations, coronations, and weddings. In medieval times she held daily worship sung by monks of the abbey. Gloucester Cathedral, a gorgeous example of what architects can do.
