The Stained Glass Museum - Sunday opening hours alert !

We've always known that The Stained Glass Museum is one of the coolest places to visit in Ely, but during this heatwave, this is especially true 😎

This summer, enjoy a break from the heat, (or perhaps an escape from the rain might be more accurate!) in the cool temperatures of the Cathedral and explore our beautiful, nationally designated, collection.

This summer, we're also opening on some selected 'Summer Sunday' afternoons, so do pop in to visit or amazing collection, browse the shop, or simply enjoy the beautiful views of the Cathedral from the triforium level.

We'll be open every other Sunday in June, July and August ☀️
