Westminster Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Westminster, London, England
The cathedral features a 87-meter tower and extends 110 meters in length, built with distinctive red brick walls and marble decorations throughout its structure.
Construction of Westminster Cathedral started in 1895 under architect John Francis Bentley, with the consecration ceremony taking place in June 1910.
The cathedral maintains a professional choir that performs daily masses and vespers, presenting both Renaissance compositions and contemporary religious music.
Visitors can attend services daily from 7:30 AM to 7:00 PM at 42 Francis Street, with regular confession times scheduled throughout the week.
The interior decoration remains incomplete, with unfinished marble and brick surfaces creating a stark contrast to the completed Byzantine-style mosaics.
