Coventry (new) Cathedral

Coventry is blessed with having three Cathedrals. The first was dissolved by Henry VIII and the second was destroyed during the war. The third is a huge modernist structure connected to the second and running over the site of the first.

The cathedral is a very brave innovation drawing on modern architecture, glass and concrete in its design. A very untraditional building that shows off a profound collection of art and design.

Most moving is this powerful statue of the triumph of St Michael over the devil.
