Top attractions in Coventry:

Coventry Cathedral

Coventry Cathedral is a place where splendid medieval history meets modern architecture to stunning and poignant effect. The original Cathedral of St Michael was built between the late 14th and 15th centuries and was destroyed in the 1940 blitz on Coventry. It’s best to see the Ruins first (ideally entering from Cuckoo Lane) and only then to explore the New Cathedral. Also, climb 180 steps of the St Michael’s Tower for the best view in Coventry!
