The historic Winchester Cathedral was absolutely spectacular! I do not have words todescribe the enormity of the building. How in the world did these ancient craftsmen create such mammoth structures out of marble and granite and maintain such detail?
The cathedral was built hundreds of years ago and tells the tale of life we can only imagine. Winchester Cathedral was begun by the Normans in 1075 and completed in the 1500s. In the early 1900 part of the cathedral was starting to sink and a diver was brought in to rebuild the underpinnings. Not only is the stone work amazing, but the interior woodwork and stained glass is spectacular. We spent about two hours here before dashing off to the next stop. Guess where?
