A warm welcome to St Edmundsbury Cathedral, the Mother Church of the Anglican Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich, and a focal point for the Christian faith in Suffolk, one of the eastern counties of England. The church here has been a place of pilgrimage and tourism for centuries and, every day, prayer is offered to God for the Church and for the world. Do come and visit us soon and, in the mean time, keep visiting our website which is updated regularly.
