Centrally situated, the famous York Minster is visible from much of the city. It has three towers and is the fifth church to be built on this particular site. It's the largest Gothic Cathedral in Northern Europe and dates right back to medieval times, although excavations have unearthed Norman, Roman and Viking beginnings. See for yourself the wonderful 14th and 15th century stained glass, including the famous Rose Window. Admission to the main body of the Minster is free, although contributions to the York Minister Fund and Friends of York Minister are welcome.
