St Andrews Cathedral

St Andrews Cathedral

The ruined Roman Catholic cathedral was built 1158 and was the main seat of the Catholic Church in Scotland in the Middle Ages. The cathedral fell into disuse after the Scottish Reformation in the sixteenth century, which outlawed Catholic mass. The building was stormed by Protestants, destroying the interior, and the ruins were used for building material for the town. The ruins of the cathedral suggest that the building was once 119 metres tall, making it the largest church to have been built in Scotland. The tour consists of ten 360º views of the cathedral which can be clicked between in thumbnails on the bottom of the page or in icons spread around the images. Accessibility note: All areas of the cathedral, visitor centre, shop, and museum are accessed over grass or gravel paths. A ramp is available for entry to the museum.
