St Columb's Cathedral is a historic Anglican cathedral in Derry, UK, constructed between 1628 and 1633, notable as the first Protestant cathedral built in the British Isles after the Reformation and situated within the city's ancient walls. Attending an event here offers a unique experience amidst centuries of history, surrounded by significant artifacts from the Siege of Derry, stunning stained-glass windows, and the resonant sound of Ireland's oldest peal of bells.
NEVER OPEN?! Even though they list the new-revised opening times on the door - it was seemingly never open when I went. Tried to visit twice, both times around noon (they say they're open 10:00am-3:00pm) but found all the doors to be locked solid. Not sure what's going on there, cool to look at from the outside though.

Went to see the Christmas trees display. First time in here, and it was a lovely peaceful experience. One of the choir members was there as a helper he was very chatty, warm, and welcoming.

The Christmas 🎄 tree display was wonderful in this gorgeous cathedral where my grandparents were married in 1898.

Well worth a visit if you are in the city. Presently hosting a celebration of Christmas trees. Houses a collection of items from the city since the 1600 hundreds. Free entry, an active cathedral that encourages visitors and holds interesting events such as music concerts as well as religious services.
