O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Tri preživjele kopije Magna Carte postoje, a Lincolnska katedrala čuva jednu od njih u svojoj zadivljujućoj zasvođenoj kapitulskoj dvorani. Njen centralni toranj je jednom bio najviša zgrada na svijetu sa 160 metara, sve dok ga oluja nije srušila 1549. godine.
Istaknuto: Pogledajte gore u plafon Anđeoskog hora i primijetit ćete preko 300 izrezbarenih anđela koji vas gledaju, svaki s različitim izrazima i položajima. Srednjovjekovni "Lincolnski imp" uklesan u stub je nestašno malo kameno stvorenje s prekrštenom nogom, a legenda kaže da je anđeo pretvorila impa u kamen usred nestašluka upravo ovdje.
Insajderski savjeti
- Climb the tower for panoramic views over Lincolnshire, but book ahead as spaces are limited to small groups.
- The Wren Library above the cloisters holds the Magna Carta copy, but it is only open for limited hours on specific days, so check the schedule before you go.
- Wear comfortable walking shoes, as the cathedral sits at the top of Steep Hill and involves walking on uneven medieval stone floors inside.
- Visit during Advent to hear the famous Lincoln Cathedral Choir performing in the spectacular acoustic setting.
