West Lindsey Churches Festival
Join in and celebrate at the West Lindsey Churches Festival supporting the many churches and chapels across the stunning Lincolnshire countryside and rural villages that make up the vibrant landscape.
Many of the churches are still the focal point of the villages within the West Lindsey District and will provide you with an insight into the history and life of their parishes. Others offer a vibrant collection of stained glass, architecture, carvings and Artefacts.
Some of the smaller churches open their doors simply to provide you with an oasis of peace and spirituality, a place to relax and witness the Holy Spirit. And finally, the festival offers intrigue and mystery as hidden stories are uncovered after being kept so secret over the years!
With events taking place in rural towns and villages including Market Rasen, Caistor, Tealby, Hemswell Cliff, Nettleham, Saxilby, Scampton and many more.
