The Cathedral of Saint Andrew

The Cathedral of Saint Andrew
Commonly known as St Andrews Cathedral.

A. I.-Generated Article:

St Andrews Cathedral is a ruined cathedral located in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. It was built in 1158 and became the centre of the Medieval Catholic Church in Scotland as the seat of the Archdiocese of St Andrews and the Bishops and Archbishops of St Andrews. It was the largest church ever to have been constructed in Scotland during its time. Construction went on for over a century and was stalled by a storm in 1272, which blew down the west front. The damaged parts were rebuilt during 1272 until 1279, with the cathedral’s dedication occurring in 1318 at the hands of King Robert.

An iconic view of the cathedral, just along the road from the Fisher School. What a glorious town is St.Andrews.
