WELCOME
After 1066 the Norman policy was that cathedrals, then insmall communities, should be moved to larger centres ofpopulation. In 1075 the See of Chichester was established in
what had been an important Roman city.
The building of the present Cathedral was begun in 1076 underBishop Stigand and was completed under Bishop Luffa in time for itsconsecration to the Holy Trinity in 1108. In subsequent centuriesthere has been much additional building.
PRAYER OF ST RICHARD OF CHICHESTERThanks be to thee, my Lord Jesus Christ,For all the benefits which Thou hast given me,For all the pains and insultsWhich Thou hast borne for me,O most merciful Redeemer,Friend and Brother,May I know Thee more clearly,Love Thee more dearlyAnd follow Thee more nearly.
WELCOME to Chichester Cathedral,the ‘Mother Church’ of the Diocese ofChichester.
The Cathedral is itself a work of art, but itis also famous for its artistic treasures,which span the centuries from Normantimes to our own. Each of these can helpus to see the world of faith – and ourworld – through new eyes.
The building is used for a variety of events– concerts, recitals, exhibitions, drama –but they are not its primary purpose. Thisis a holy place, set apart for the service of
God, in which God is present in word and sacrament. Herethe daily round of worship is offered, as it has been for 900years of more or less turbulent history, in praise of Jesus Christ.Here since the thirteenth century, pilgrims have come to prayat the shrine of the saintly Bishop Richard.
People of all faiths, and none, are welcome to sit quietly, topray, to worship, to give thanks or to seek spiritual counsel.
I pray that you will feel you belong here, and that you willexperience, through the holiness of this wonderful place,something of the love of God, and his peace which passes ourunderstanding.
Nicholas Frayling, Dean

Dopo il 1066, secondo i normanni, le cattedraliche si trovavano in piccole comunità dovevano essere spostate in centri abitati più grandi. Nel 1075 la diocesi di Chichester fu trasferita in quella che
era stata un’importante città romana.
La costruzione dell’edificio dell’attuale cattedrale è stata iniziata nel 1076 con il vescovo Stigand e sarà completata con il vescovo Luffa in tempo per la sua consacrazione alla Santa Trinità nel 1108. Nei secoli successivi sono state apportate numerose aggiunte.

BENVENUTI alla cattedrale di Chichester, la “Chiesa Madre” della Diocesi di Chichester.
La cattedrale stessa è un capolavoro artistico, ma è famosa anche per i suoi tesori che vanno dall’epoca normanna fino ai giorni nostri. Ognuno di essi può aiutarci a vedere il mondo della fede e il nostro mondo, con nuovi occhi.
L’edificio viene utilizzato per numerosi eventi, quali concerti, recital, rappresentazioni teatrali, esibizioni, ma non è questo il suo compito principale. Si tratta di un luogo sacro, dedicato al servizio
divino, in cui Dio è presente nella parola e nel sacramento. Qui, è possibile pregare Gesù Cristo sempre, così com’è stato per i circa 900 anni di storia turbolenta. In questa cattedrale, fin dal XXIII secolo, i pellegrini arrivano per pregare nel luogo del santo vescovo Richard.
Persone di ogni fede e atei, possono accedere dedicandosi, in silenzio, alla preghiera e al culto, per rendere grazia o per chiedere consiglio spirituale.
Mi auguro che vi sentiate a vostro agio qui e che possiate provare un’esperienza di santità in questo luogo meraviglioso, avvolti dall’amore di Dio e dalla sua pace.
Nicholas Frayling, Dean

BENVENUTI alla cattedrale di Chichester. L’ingresso alla cattedrale è libero, poiché crediamo che questo stupendo edificio debba essere disponibile a tutti. Tuttavia, ci affidiamo alla vostra generosità. Vi chiediamo di effettuare una donazione presso uno dei punti contrassegnati sulla mappa. Grazie
La finestra di Chagall (particolare)- vedere punto 13 Il miracolo di Lazzaro - vedere punto 6
LE GUIDE TURISTICHE SONO IN VENDITA PRESSO IL BANCO INFORMAZIONI E IL NEGOZIO DEL CHIOSTRO
PASSEGGIARE NELLA CATTEDRALE PUÒ ISPIRARE E INTRIGARE.…Durante la visita, vi invitiamo a riflettere su questo luogo sacro e sulle numerose storie che racconta attraverso le sue cappelle, le opere d’arte, le tombe e gli altari. Potete ammirare qualcosa realizzato per offrire un’esperienza diretta del divino a coloro che entrano. Per coloro che si fermano qui a pregare tutto ciò ha ancora questo potere. Questa è l’opportunità di provare qualcosa di antico, e nel contempo moderno, per riflettere su ciò che davvero è importante e per accendere, eventualmente, una candela per qualcuno che ne ha bisogno.
1 IL BATTISTERO Il dipinto, Il Battesimo di Cristo è di Hans Feibusch (1951). La Fonte, in pietra saponaria della Cornovaglia con-o in rame, è stata progettata da John Skelton (1983) e fa parte del memoriale di George Bell (vescovo 1929-1958).
2 LA CAPPELLA DI ST GEORGE Cappella in memoria del Royal Sussex Regiment.
3 LA CAPPELLA DI ST CLEMENT L’altare frontale, L’icona della luce divina, sono di Cecil Collins (1973). È stata dedicata alla memoria della Royal Air Force nel 2006.
4 BELL-ARUNDEL SCREEN risale al XV secolo, è stata rimossa nel 1859 e riposizionata nella sua sede originale nel 1961.
5 IL TRANSETTO SUD La finestra dell’inizio del XIV secolo contiene vetro di Lorraine (1877). I dipinti di Lambert Barnard risalgono all’inizio del XVI secolo. La guida turistica della cattedrale, con straordinarie fotografie, è disponibile al banco informazioni (e al negozio del chiostro, punto 21).
6 DUE IMPORTANTI SCULTURE ROMANICHE (XII secolo) descrivono il miracolo di Lazzaro e l’arrivo di Cristo in Betania. In origine erano colorate ed avevano gioielli o pietre semipreziose incastonati negli occhi.
