About
No trip to Liverpool is complete without a visit to the awe-inspiring Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King. This dramatic icon of faith, architecture and human endeavour is spectacular in both scale and design.
Explore the Cathedral's majestic interior which includes modern works of art and stunning design features, such as its striking Lantern Tower - the world’s largest area of coloured glass. Along with daily Masses and Services, the Cathedral runs a diverse programme of wonderful music concerts, exhibitions and special events.
Of special note is the magnificent Lutyens Crypt and Treasury, situated within the Cathedral. An architectural gem in its own right, the Crypt is one of the most significant works in this country of the leading British architect Sir Edwin Lutyens. Part of an earlier Cathedral design, the Crypt offers a fascinating glimpse of what might have been, had it been completed.
Visitors can explore the Crypt’s vast neo-classical halls whilst learning about the people and stories behind this astonishing space in a brand new exhibition Secrets of the Crypt.
Entrance also includes access to the Crypt’s glittering Treasury, which contains a priceless collection of church artefacts and sacred vessels – the largest of such kind in the North West.
Guided tours of the Cathedral are available Monday – Saturday. Simply ask at the Welcome Desk to book a space.
