King's Lynn Minster, Grade I listed church building in King's Lynn, England

The Norman church features two towers, large windows, and Gothic architectural elements spread across its expansive stone structure in Saturday Market Place.

Herbert de Losinga, first Bishop of Norwich, established the church in 1095 as a Benedictine priory dedicated to St Margaret of Antioch.

The interior contains two of Britain's largest brass memorials, commemorating medieval mayors Adam de Walsoken and Robert Braunche with intricate engravings.

The church maintains daily visiting hours and provides accessible facilities, including restrooms, parking areas, and level access throughout the main sections.

A 17th-century clock in the southwest tower displays both moon phases and tide times of the Great Ouse river for maritime navigation.
