Audio tour · Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King

2:08

You're standing on Hope Street, at the foot of a wide flight of steps. At the top rises Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral, the city's Catholic cathedral. Just look at that shape. A round cone topped by a narrow tower, with a ring of spiky pinnacles like a crown. Locals came up with nicknames straight away: Paddy's Wigwam, or the Mersey Funnel.
