Wikipedia: "Die Durham Cathedral, oder The Cathedral Church of Christ, Blessed Mary the Virgin and St Cuthbert of Durham, so der vollständige Name, ist eine Kathedrale der Church of England in der Stadt Durham im Nordosten Englands. Sie gehört zum UNESCO-Welterbe.
2019 wurde die Kathedrale von Durham von rund 727.000 Personen besucht. [ . . . ]

Die Kathedrale liegt zusammen mit der Altstadt und der Burg von Durham auf einem hoch aufragenden Felsen in einer Schleife des Flusses Wear. Mit einer Länge von 143 m nimmt sie die gesamte Breite des Felsens ein. Der Haupteingang befindet sich auf der Nordseite des Hauptschiffs (früher der Eingang für Laien). An die Südseite schließt sich der frühere Klosterbezirk der Benediktinerabtei mit dem Kreuzgang an."

(This clear account of the geographical situation of the building isn't to be found in the English Wiki).

UNESCO: "Durham Cathedral is the largest and most perfect monument of ‘Norman’ style architecture in England. The small astral (castle) chapel for its part marks a turning point in the evolution of 11th century Romanesque sculpture. [ . . . ] Though some wrongly considered Durham Cathedral to be the first ‘Gothic’ monument (the relationship between it and the churches built in the Île-de-France region in the 12th century is not obvious), this building, owing to the innovative audacity of its vaulting, constitutes, as do Spire [Speyer] and Cluny, a type of experimental model which was far ahead of its time."
