Coventry Cathedral which is built next to the bombed ruins of the old site has scrapped its entrance fees due to “generous donations”.
Charges including £6 adult entrance fees were introduced in 2010 because donations were “simply not enough”.
The announcement was made at the diocese’s Centenary Festival earlier.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, said the cathedral and the diocese were working together to “make sure the day-to-day costs are met”.
