Coventry Blitz Coventry Cathedral Ruins
Coventry Cathedral is one of the most powerful symbols of peace and resilience in the UK. The original cathedral was destroyed during the Blitz in 1940, and instead of rebuilding the ruins, the city chose to keep them as a reminder of hope. Right beside it stands the stunning modern cathedral, opened in 1962, celebrating reconciliation and new beginnings. A place where history, art, and faith come together beautifully. | Jannatul Forain Nishu
