Ely cathedral

This magnificent medieval cathedral was built 1083-1375. So it started out in the Romanesque style, but parts of it was later updated to Gothic, when that was the current fashion. Up to the Reformation the cathedral was dedicated to St Etheldreda (who had founded an abbey in the area in 672) and St Peter, but since the Reformation it is formally known as the Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Ely.
