Venue History: Bishop Herbert de Losinga laid the foundation stone for Norwich Cathedral in 1096. The building was consecrated in 1101 and it served as a Benedictine priory until the dissolution of the monasteries in 1538. Today the original Norman ground plan is virtually intact, despite devastating gales, fires, riots and wars over the centuries, and the importance of the Cathedral chiefly rests on the scale of the original Romanesque building and the completeness of its survival.
Other information: The Cathedral has the largest surviving monastic cloister in England, built between 1297 and 1430, and boasts England's second tallest spire.
