Built in 1715 as the new parish church “on the hill”, St Philip’s is a rare and fine example of elegant English Baroque architecture.
It is Grade 1 listed and one of the oldest buildings in the city still used for its original purpose. Fascinating both inside and out, the cathedral is home to some remarkable treasures (not least the inspiring stained-glass windows designed by Edward Burne-Jones) and amazing stories, all set amongst the daily rhythm of people criss-crossing this unique part of the city.
We invite you to get involved and discover the wealth of heritage connected with the cathedral as well as its strong links to the history and development of Birmingham.
Come and see an artistic masterpiece, witness architectural brilliance, meet compelling people or, quite simply, share a timeless peace that this place has been offering visitors and worshippers for over 300 years.
