Cathedral of St Michael and St George, Aldershot
Cathedral of St Michael and St George, Aldershot, Roman Catholic cathedral on Queens Avenue, Aldershot, England.
The yellow-brick cathedral features broad aisles, a wide nave with five bays of Early English style arches, and a tall tower with red-brick spire.
Queen Victoria laid the foundation stone in 1892 for what was initially built as the principal church for Anglican chaplaincies of the British Army.
The cathedral serves as the central religious facility for the Roman Catholic Bishopric of the Forces since its designation in 1973.
The cathedral holds regular services including Sunday Mass at 11:00, Wednesday Mass at noon, and special Masses for Holy Days of Obligation.
A sanctuary crucifix constructed from components of 23 different aircraft dating from the 1930s connects the cathedral to Royal Air Force service members.
