Truro Cathedral stands at the heart of Cornwall’s only city, rising above the streets of Truro with its elegant three spires and striking Gothic Revival architecture. Completed in the early 20th century and designed by the renowned architect John Loughborough Pearson, the Cathedral is considered one of the finest examples of Victorian ecclesiastical design in the United Kingdom.
