Lancaster Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Lancaster, England.

The Saint Peter Cathedral features Gothic Revival architecture with stone carvings, tall windows, and a prominent bell tower facing Lancaster city center.

Initially established as a Catholic mission church in 1798, the current building was constructed between 1857 and 1859 under architect Edward Graham Paley.

The Saint Peter Cathedral maintains regular mass schedules and functions as a central location for Catholic ceremonies, concerts, and community gatherings in Lancashire.

The cathedral opens its doors for guided tours, allowing visitors to explore the nave, choir area, and various chapels containing religious artifacts.

The Grade II listed cathedral received its designation in 1924, transforming from a parish church into the mother church of the Lancaster Catholic Diocese.
