Liverpool Cathedral Built by the people for the people to the Glory of God
(4733)

From the very early days of its origins and then starting to build just after the turn of the 20th Century, through to its completion in 1978 after 74 long, hard, but rewarding years, the unfolding story of this great cathedral, the largest in the whole of the UK and the fifth largest in the world, is both fascinating and quite unique. It survived 2 World Wars, periods of recession and great hardship in this once famous and important port of Liverpool to become a tribute to the dedication of a great many people and their skills. Share the amazing journey through our site, as it becomes evident just how important the Cathedral is to the heart and the life of this now internationally acclaimed City of Liverpool.

It was wonderful to welcome the Archbishop of York and the Lord’s Prayer Tour to Liverpool Cathedral yesterday, as part of its journey across the North of England.

The day concluded with an evening gathering at the Cathedral, exploring the power and relevance of the Lord’s Prayer in our lives today.

Have you ever stopped to look closely at the stories told through art at Liverpool Cathedral? 👀🎨

In 1996, the Cathedral was presented with four paintings inspired by the parables of Jesus, including two striking works by Glaswegian artist Adrian Wiszniewski.

From The Good Samaritan to House Built Upon Rock, these paintings bring familiar biblical stories into a contemporary setting, filled with symbolism, detail and connections to Liverpool.

Our intern, Martha Luke, has taken a closer look at Wiszniewski’s two commissions, exploring the stories, symbolism and fascinating details you might otherwise miss.

Read Martha’s article on Art UK's website and discover the stories behind the paintings!
