St John The Baptist City Parish Church

A few minutes’ walk from Cardiff Castle this church is in the middle of the central market area is the only per-medieval church in the city center I believe. One can’t miss it walking down Church street. I did not go in, but from the outside one can see some beautiful stain glass windows. Again, coming from the states …Wow a church built in 1180 and still active.

The area has everything shopping, restaurants, pubs, historic sites. A weekend would not be enough time to see and visit everything in Central Cardiff. I post some picks along the avenues around the church

St John's Parish is a Medieval church dating back to 1400s and is one of the oldest structures in the city centre other than Cardiff Castle.

It's a beautiful building from the outside with a tall steeple and aesthetic stone facade. There is a small garden attached which is nice to sit and think.

The interior steals the show though. Wonderful examples of stained glass windows on all sides of the buildings. With alters, organs, pews, stairways, and beams it's a visual feast.

It's just a short hop from Queen Street so if you're in downtown Cardiff then consider popping in

Haven’t had chance to visit inside but looks beautiful from outside

Great architecture and peaceful place for worshippers❤🙏

Beautiful church in the center of Cardiff

Hi there. I just reached here before 4 days. Nobody helped me out in searching accommodation here in Cardiff. I'm wondering here and there along with my small baby. I want to request from you please guide me and help me out. I want to come to the church. I want to take help I want to know about Jesus. I want to seek enlightenment. Please help me out🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭

A lovely 12th century Church, beautiful exterior interior and a blessing to us all.

Very central and beautiful church with its cleaned exterior tower.

Before the first lockdown went to the pleasant Cafe above church serving until 2.30pm,.Tea in a mug was provided at cost price it seemed, given to us with a smile even just after they stopped serving the usual cake and sandwiches. Caring people obviously volunteers with the church.
