Bow your head, say a prayer and perhaps even light a candle in St Edmundsbury Cathedral. This grand place of worship may not be open all day, so check ahead for times if you'd like to go inside.
St Edmundsbury Cathedral is free to enter, so you can have a fun day out in Bury St Edmunds without opening your wallet. When you're done wandering around this principal church, pay a visit to some of the area's other sights. Ickworth House, Abbey Gardens and Theatre Royal are a hit with tourists.
