Reviews of St Mary de Castro Church

Lovely historic place of worship, the services are done in what I would consider traditional Church of England style. Sadly this holy building is not supported by a large Christian congregational but, a small sincere group of laity and clergy.
Multiculturalism, diversity and the gradual turning against Christianity along with the English losing their identity, all will add up to beautiful churches like this to further decline.
Enjoy a visit to St, Mary de Castro church, you will enjoy the peace and history it offers, along with a spiritual and meditative belonging.

A rare look inside St Mary de Castro Church thanks to heritage open Days. So beautiful. I love churches for the history and architecture and some of this building dates back to Norman times. Legend says Richard III would have both worshipped here and that his body rested here prior to its burial at Grey Friars. Recently refurbished (but still missing it's spire which was removed in 2014 when it became unsafe) volunteers on hand were helpful and informative.

The most beautiful church in Leicester City!

This church named ST Mary De Castro Church is a medieval origin where, the careful visitor can notice the arch clearly of Romanesque style;today this anglican place of worship has become the episcopal center of Leicester.The entire facade of the church was built at the time,within the confines of the castle.In 1950 it was recognized as a world heritage site by UNESCO.In my opinion it is a beautiful and very quiet place and with its millenary history there can be a lot.In this pleasant place, families can spend moments of the true peace because this quiet corner can offer a silence.I would dare to say even if around this area the chaos of the modern day is fervent. To conclude this review, I must inform all lovers of music, that in different periods of the year many concerts are performed, worthy of being listened to.

Despite the loss of it's beautiful spire, this is still a magnificent church. Rich in architectural detail both inside and out. Though dominated by the huge old chestnut the churchyard is worth a visit too. The boundary wall reveals damage caused due the Seige of Leicester during the English Civil War. This is 'must see' on any visitors list and a perfect foil to all the modern architecture of the DMU Campus

A hidden gem. No matter what your beliefs, this is a place of tranquility and beauty. Open 12-2 during the week, take time to look around, especially at the stained glass. Wow!

A pretty medieval church with Romanesque arch. It's in a beautiful setting with Leicester Castle on its west side, and a massive oak and small graveyard on the other

Beautiful building, worth visiting. Have some great concerts. Claim historical connection with King Richard III. Friendly staff.
