St Edmundsbury Cathedral offers a wealth of interesting architecture, stained glass, needlework and other treasures. You will find links with the Magna Carta, Santiago de Compostela and the United States of America. Bartholomew Gosnold, who sailed in the Godspeed from Suffolk to found the first permanent English speaking settlement in the USA at Jamestown, Virginia, had his children baptised at St James' church (now the Cathedral). He named Martha's Vineyard after his eldest daughter, who died in infancy.
