PETERBOROUGH CATHEDRAL

One of England's most magnificent cathedrals, Peterborough Cathedral, was first established by the monastic community in 654 A.D. The burial places of two queens and the site of Civil War upheavals make Peterborough Cathedral one of the most important mediaeval abbeys in all of England. It is one of the most prominent tourist places to visit in Peterborough and a true statement of time. 

Cathedral is the best site for learning about the Christian religion because it is an active and functioning church. With almost 1,350 years of history, most of it is directly related to national events; it is also the ideal choice for a youth-educational tour.The place serves as the bishop's residence, and the main point of focus is on growth and unity in The Cathedral of Peterborough.

This is one of the best places to see in Peterborough, where tourists can visit on their own or arrange a tour to fully appreciate England's illustrious past. This place is also well known as the birthplace of Queen Mary of Scots who also lived here with her son, named as King James 1. There are rumours that before the construction of this church, there was a monument or temple which might be a Roman building.
