The seat of the Anglican Bishop of Peterborough, it is dedicated to the Apostles Saint Peter, Saint Paul, and Saint Andrew, whose statues look down from the three high gables of the famous West Front. Founded in the Anglo-Saxon period as a minster it became one of Englands most important Benedictine abbeys only becoming a cathedral in 1542. Its architecture is mainly Norman, following a rebuilding in the 12th century. With Durham and Ely cathedrals, it is one of the most important 12th cent. buildings in England to have remained largely intact, despite extensions and restoration, and is one the nations best preserved pre-reformation abbeys.
