Of all Cambridge churches and chapels, one stands head and shoulders above the others in terms of popularity; King's College Chapel. Certainly, the queues are long enough during chapel opening hours! But there are many more wonderful churches around the old city centre.
In fact, I can't think of another place in England that has a greater concentration of historic churches within easy strolling distance of each other, and that's not even mentioning all the college chapels, many of which deserve equal billing in terms of historical importance.
See King's College Chapel by all means, it is well worth visiting. But for goodness sake, don't stop there, there are so many other fascinating churches just minutes away!
Cambridge Leper Chapel
Around 1125 a small leper hospital was established at Stourbridge, just outside the town walls. This simple building has now been engulfed the expanding maw of modern Cambridge.

Great St Mary's
As the name 'Great' might suggest, this is the largest church in Cambridge and has outstanding carvings within the ornate interior. It was used as a meeting hall in medieval times, and as a venue for conferring degrees until Senate House was built opposite in 1730.

King's College Chapel
Founded in 1441 by Henry VI for students of his new King's College. Designed by Henry's own royal architect, Reginald of Ely, the result is one of the most beautiful medieval buildings in England, known for its superlative Perpendicular vaulting.

Little St Mary's
The original 12th-century church on this site was known as St. Peter-without-Trumpington-Gate. This dedication provided the name for the neighbouring college of Peterhouse. Students at Peterhouse worshipped in the church until the college chapel was erected in 1632.

St Bene't's (St Benedicts)
Commonly known as St Bene't's, this ancient building was begun in 1020. The tower of St Bene't's is thus the oldest intact building in Cambridgeshire. Surviving Saxon features include the chancel arch and traditional long-and-short quoins at the building corners.
