Potential disruption to your visit, January 2026

Capital works at Winchester Cathedral

As part of the essential works taking place, the toilets at Winchester Cathedral will be out of order for necessary maintenance from 5 to 29 January, with the nearest toilets in nearby Market Lane.

The refurbishment work is an essential part of caring for our buildings and making them as safe, comfortable, and practical for our visitors as we can.

From 5 – 23 January scaffolding will be in place in the nave, and there will be high levels of noise disruption on 6, 7, 13, 22 and 23 January. On these dates, there will be no guided tours. 

The best way to support Winchester Cathedral is to buy an annual pass. For just £14, you can visit as many times as you like, and to experience our exhibitions including Luke Jerram’s Helios in January and February, plus get an update on our treasured mortuary chests which have been the subject of decades of mystery and research.

Entry to the Cathedral for worship is always free.
