Tympanum over main door, Westminster Cathedral, Victoria, London, UK. Depicts Christ with saints

---

Westminster Cathedral is relatively ‘modern’ in historical terms. Building only began in 1895 and the Cathedral was completed just eight years later in 1903 but its unique architecture reflects the influences of ancient Christian churches and its construction marks a pivotal moment in the history of the Church in England and Wales. Westminster Cathedral houses the seat or ‘Cathedra’ of the Archbishop of Westminster, and is the Mother Church for Catholics in England and Wales.
