The Norfolk Churches Trust exists in order to protect through financial aid and advice the many architecturally precious religious monuments of the county.
Norfolk features the largest cluster of medieval churches in the world, representing an important legacy for future generations. These beautiful buildings contain a wide range of rare works of art and craftsmanship including stained glass windows, painted screens, statuary and frescos, carved woodwork, bells and organs. The Trust's grants have proved to be vital to the future of many churches.
