Carlisle Cathedral, formally the Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity, is an Anglican cathedral in Cumbria, England, and the seat of the Bishop of Carlisle. Founded as an Augustinian priory and elevated to cathedral status in 1133, it blends Norman and English Gothic architecture. The second smallest of England's ancient cathedrals, it is distinguished by figurative stone carving, a notable set of medieval choir stalls, and the largest Flowing Decorated Gothic window in England. Now a Grade I listed building, it stands as a significant example of medieval ecclesiastical architecture.
