Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral

A breath of catholic fresh air! stunning brutalist architecture! the history behind this structure is almost as fascinating as the building itself. thank you, martin, for such engaging conversation!!!

I regularly come here to look inside and walk round outside. there are a few little chapels as well as the main alter. the volunteera are friendly.

Very beautiful cathedral,inside and out very peaceful and serene inside ,apart from the main church with the altar in the centre there are 13 other small chapels , plus the crypt which is as good as the church itself,full of valuable treasures there's an admission fee to enter the crypt,it's easy to miss the crypt because it's size and contents are not very openly advertised,there's a lift to reach it if you are less able,my favourite view is looking up to the windows in the top of the tower with the light flooding through

What an amazing building, even if you are not religious you should visit this cathedral just to admire the architecture. it is full of amazing light and shadows and us definitely something special. places like this are best visited in complete silence so as to allow the mind to wrest and think about life, to meditate on family and all the good things in life . to also wrestle with the horrors that surround us and happen daily in this life. we have so much to be thankful for but sometimes we can forget that .

I really enjoyed visiting this cathedral! earlier in the day we visited the anglican cathedral; the two are very different! it’s quite an impressive sight to see this cathedral loom up at the end if the approach; it really reminded me of a spaceship as it’s so modern. inside, i just loved the amazing colours from the stained glass panels, many quite traditional but others ultra modern. there is a wonderful feeling of light and space; i really enjoyed looking around. if visiting again i would go down to explore the crypt; we just didn’t have enough time today. highly recommended!
