New Audio Tour Launches at Truro Cathedral

The Truro Cathedral team is excited to announce the launch of a new audio tour, which allows visitors to explore the building at their own pace using their mobile phones. Although guided tours with our expert volunteer guides will continue from March to October, this new option allows people to wander independently while still enjoying the full breadth of knowledge shared by all the cathedral’s guides, now brought together in one place.

This project has been made possible thanks to the generous and continuing support of the Friends of Truro Cathedral. Their commitment to enriching the visitor experience has played a vital role in bringing the audio tour to life, and the cathedral is deeply grateful.

The tour has been developed with Penelewey Tours and can be accessed through the VoiceMap app, available for download from the App Store or Google Play. Once the app is installed and the tour code entered, visitors can connect to the cathedral’s WiFi to download the content before setting off. A mobile phone and your own headphones are needed, and the tour can be purchased at the Welcome Desk.

The Audio Tour offers a relaxed, engaging and flexible way to discover the cathedral’s history and architecture, making it easier than ever for visitors to immerse themselves with the fascinating stories and history behind this remarkable building.
