The Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King, Liverpool

Metro CathLiverpool1This summer, during my visit to Liverpool to attend The JAM’s ‘Welcome To The Dark Ages’ event I found some time to visit a few landmarks around Liverpool. My first stop was the 50 year old Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King which has some of the most stunning architectural features and stained glass windows I think I’ve ever seen.

The photos speak for themselves but my camera just couldn’t capture the vividness of colour created by the sun lighting up the windows. For a building half a century old it’s an incredibly modern piece of art, right down to some of the imagery and sculptures they have installed.

  1. Did you have time to visit the Anglican Cathedral as well? I always thought it looked like something out of an illustration in a Warhammer 40K rulebook. Like a massive armoured Gothic spacecraft.
