The Cathedral of St Andrew is a ruined cathedral in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. In June 1559 during the Reformation, a Protestant mob incited by the preaching of John Knox ransacked the cathedral; the interior of the building was destroyed. The cathedral fell into decline following the attack and became a source of building material for the town. St Andrews is a great town to walk around and explore. There is plenty you can visit, including the St Andrews Cathedral, St Andrews Castle ruins, pier, botanic gardens and general historic architecture throughout the town. The beautiful movie chariots of fire has been shot here.

Beautiful ruins to walk around with fantastic photo opportunities. Small onsite museum type building, we didn't go in as it was busy at the time.

Currently closed for renovation - Would love to come back when we can see more of it.

We were able to walk around the area and peek in to see parts of it.
