St Martin's Church highlights
When you visit this church, you'll want to check out its most impressive features. The stained glass windows depict important biblical scenes, with the oldest dating back to 1875. In fact, this window was taken down during World War II in case a bomb was dropped in the area. Coincidentally, a bomb fell the next day, destroying all the other windows.
The bells in this church are particularly unique. Unlike most rings, this church features a ring of 16. Most bells around the world only have rings of 5, 6, 8, or 10.
Good to know when visiting St Martin's Church
When you visit this church, there are a few factors to keep in mind. If you're not planning on attending a service, it's best to avoid the church on Sundays.
