About Us

Birmingham Cathedral is the oldest building in the city centre still used for it’s original purpose. We are home to some remarkable treasures and the largest green space in central Birmingham.

We are honoured to have four beautiful stained-glass windows, designed by Pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Burne-Jones, which were fully conserved and returned to their original glory in 2023.

We promote community cohesion through partnerships with faith groups, businesses, institutions, and charities, as well as undertaking an important civic role in the city.

We are free to visit, and all are welcome to attend services, light a candle, or simply enjoy our beautiful historic building. We also host a variety of different concerts and events throughout the year. We also take bookings for group tours.

We are a Christian Church of the Anglican Communion and seat of the Bishop of Birmingham. As a parish church, we welcome enquiries about Baptisms and Weddings.

The Cathedral Church of St Philip Birmingham is a registered charity (1206485) in England and Wales.
