Pictures: York Minster welcomes back visitors

Visitors returned to York Minster today – enjoying the majestic architecture for the first time in months.

Although the cathedral has been open to worshippers for a while, today say it thrown open its doors to the general public again.

Big day for us and most places across the country as we are able to reopen our doors for general visiting.

You can once again experience the vast spaces of York Minster on your trip to @VisitYork.

See you soon 😇 pic.twitter.com/rVyMMthQra
