## About

Winchester Cathedral is one of the largest cathedrals in Europe, with the longest nave of any Gothic cathedral. Founded in 642 and rebuilt by the Normans from 1079, it has been at the heart of English Christianity for over a thousand years. The cathedral is the burial place of King Cnut, William II, and the novelist Jane Austen, whose grave in the north aisle is visited by readers from around the world. As the seat of the Diocese of Winchester it offers a full programme of daily Anglican worship, including a renowned tradition of choral evensong sung by the Cathedral Choir.
