This is a beautifully maintained, fascinating building, which is freely open to visitors. It has PIR lighting so each area of the interior you visit is illuminated without needing to have the whole church lit all the time. There are laminated pages in several languages explaining the various features and exhibits, but this is not just a historic monument, it is also home to a local congregation, with evidence of it's life and work in the community too.

I have lived in this town for so many years but had never visited the cathedral. .. so when I finally did I was so taken aback by its character and serenity. Considering how old it is, it is remarkable condition. On a full moon night the view of the cathedral with it's Round Tower is spectacular and magical. It is place of worship and I was pleased to see it was still being used as one and not converted to a commercial tourist attraction.

This is an outstanding cathedral with beautiful and interesting stained glass. The attached round tower is one of only two in Scotland. The leaflets available in the cathedral are very informative.

Outstanding Cathedral and tower. Beautiful windows with sun shining through casting the colours throughout. A feeling of peace and serenity through the Gothic architecture. Look out for this must visit location when visiting Brechin.

I was in Brechin Cathedral last Saturday afternoon, and found it to be a lovely spot tucked away in a side street.,Very peaceful, and a great place to sit and think.I have been researching my family history as my Paternal family all came from Brechin town.I found the house my late father was born in up Park Road and lots of places around there.In the grounds of the cathedral I found my grandfather and gt.grandfathers grave and tombstone and several other bits that I didn't know about. Such a lovely little town and I hadn't been there for almost 40 years yet it still keeps its identitiy.The local shop keepers were great and I had many chats to them.The real jewel of Brechin,apart from the Cathedral is the tiny town museum .Facinating place for a wander around,and next door is Rosies Bakehouse where my daughter and I lunched twice, as its food was so good and the staff so friendly and helpful.I hope to return to Brechin again one day, I loved it so much and can't imagine why anyone would want to leave it

A fascinating cathedral with a wonderful round tower (one of only two in this country) very reminiscent of similar ones in Ireland. Interesting carvings on outside of cathedral and intriguing details and monuments inside.

Perhaps we were unlucky in visiting the cathedral on an overcast day when there was little light through the stained glass windows, but we found the interior very gloomy. We'd put it on our list of things to see because of our interest in Pictish stones and thought that the two most interesting ones (the Mary Stone and the Brechin hogback tomb) were very poorly displayed - though I appreciate that a cathedral is primarily a house of prayer and not a museum. I am a believer but the inside didn't move me as much as, for example, the cathedrals at Dunblane or Dornoch. Outside the hotch potch of architectural styles resulting from a series of restorations was all too evident. What was really interesting outside was the round tower - a rarity still in excellent condition and with intriguing carvings at th narrow doorway.The cathedral is in an attractive part of Brechin and worth a visit if you happen to be there but not as a specific destination.

Beautiful grounds and very kind Pastor to offer the background of the Cathedral. Informative and knowledgible

I travelled up from Glasgow especially to visit this cathedral and was so disappointed. It was very dark inside and there was no-one around to answer any questions I wanted to ask.
