St Philip's Cathedral, Anglican cathedral in central Birmingham, England.
The rectangular hall church features classical fluted pillars, tall exterior windows, and a western tower topped with a lead-covered dome.
The building, designed by Thomas Archer, transformed from a parish church into Birmingham's cathedral in 1905 to accommodate the growing industrial city.
Three stained glass windows at the eastern end were created by Edward Burne-Jones, who was baptized in this church.
The cathedral holds daily services of Holy Communion and Morning Prayer, with Choral Evensong performed by the Cathedral Choir.
The cathedral grounds include the Burnaby obelisk commemorating Frederick Gustavus Burnaby and are locally known as 'Pigeon Park'.
