Outside and inside this is a wonderful Cathedral Church, honouring St. Mary the Virgin and St. Philip Howard. It is full of the most amazing sculptures and memorials. The cathedral is not old (1873) so all of the architecture is crisp and clean, but it follows traditional designs and looks so.much like the cathedrals of Notre Dame or Mont Saint Michel on the outside. The special features to look out for are: The stations of the cross The tomb of Saint Philip the Martyr The stunning altars Fabulous stained glass windows, especially the circular west window Two 12th Century large carvings of 'The Raising of Lazarus' The Tapestry and altar drapes 16th Century paintings of the Kings of England and Wales

Opposite Arundel Cathedral is the Parish and Priory Church of St Nicholas, which also pops up above the views from the Castle gardens. The church dates from 1380 and has a beautiful 15th century pulpit and (currently closed because of the pandemic) the Fitzalan Chapel which is the private chapel of the Dukes of Norfolk, the premier Roman Catholic family in England. Thus, unusually, one building houses spaces for Anglican and for Roman Catholic worship. A relatively simple church in terms of its architecture, inspirational and worth exploring. You are best to research it in advance because leaflets and visitor information has been removed due to pandemic precautions, but well done for being open.

This beautiful church has served the local community dating back to when it was built in Norman times. There are Commonwealth war graves within the churchyard. This church is at the heart of the community .
