Lincoln Cathedral is now one of the first cathedrals in the UK to offer walk-through panoramas of its interior on Google Street View.

The Cathedral worked to create the interactive tour with Lincoln photographer Darren Juggins, who has been part of Google’s Business Photos project since April.

As previously reported, a number of businesses in uphill Lincoln have already created interior tours for their premises, and some 50 other locations across Lincolnshire have been photographed as well.

Phil Hamlyn Williams, Cathedral Chief Executive, said: “This is a very exciting step to take to give those thinking of visiting a different sort of sneak preview of what to expect. I hope it will whet many more appetites and attract more visitors to this brilliant city.”

Photographer Darren Juggins added: “Lincolnshire Day is very special to me and having my tour published on such a historic day is fantastic, this technology is helping businesses all over Lincolnshire and it’s great to be the first to be involved in such a fantastic Project.”
