Norfolk Has A Rich Ecclesiastical History

Dotted across the Norfolk landscape is evidence of a rich ecclesiastical heritage.Every village

, it seems, has a wonderful medieval church with more in the market towns and Norwich with at least 20 hidden away in narrow lanes or on street corners.Overall, Norfolk has more than 630 medieval churches, each with character and individuality with squat square towers, petite round towers, spires or even octagonal towers.Every weekend, bells can be heard ringing out as couple's get married in these fabulous settings.Yet there are many other wedding venues in Norfolk in addition to these churches. The attraction with such Norfolk wedding Venues is that people can hold the entire ceremony and celebration in them from actually getting married there, to holding their reception.For those who choose to marry in a religious setting, the wedding venues can continue the festivities in style, taking on most of the organisation and some even have stylish accommodation as well.Fantastic wedding venues and settings are spread right across Norfolk but there are also many attractive places to get married in Norwich too.Norwich, inevitably, is the focal point of the county. All roads lead to Norwich; it is the business centre, the cultural and historical heart and a vibrant medieval city.There are great restaurants in Norwich, lively bars, theatres, pubs, clubs and museums and it is easy to spend several days exploring it on foot, pausing at a Norwich Restaurant for lunch, and then heading off in a different direction to perhaps look around the shops, or walk by the water's edge with the cathedral as a backdrop.The Anglican Cathedral is a Norman architectural masterpiece with its soaring spire, magnificent setting and wonderful peaceful cloisters. But across the city is a second cathedral, the Roman Catholic Cathedral of Norwich, which looks just as ancient in style but has a much more recent history having been completed and fully opened in the early part of the 20th century.Combined with the intriguing medieval churches, not only in Norwich but beyond the city in wider Norfolk, the county is a historical gem for those with an interest in ecclesiastical history and architecture.
