Holy Cross Priory, Leicester, Dominican church building in Leicester, England
Holy Cross Priory stands as a Catholic parish church with a stone-built structure featuring Gothic elements and transepts along New Walk in Leicester.
The Dominican friars established their first presence in Leicester during 1247, though the current priory building dates from 1882 after a long absence.
The priory maintains connections with local universities and hospitals, providing spiritual guidance and support to students and patients in Leicester.
The church holds daily Mass services, with additional religious ceremonies during weekends and specific times for confession throughout the week.
The building houses an organ from 1880, originally constructed by William Ebenezer Richardson and transferred from St Mary's Church in Preston.
