The Anglican Cathedral Church of the Holy Trinity is both a parish church and the mother church of the Diocese in Europe.
In 2005 we joined the Diocese in celebrating its Silver Jubilee and also celebrated 100 years since the appointment of the first Dean of Gibraltar. (Pictures in Gallery, page 2).
Forthcoming events
The Vacancy
During the Vacancy produced by the retirement of The Very Reverend Alan Woods, we will be welcoming a number of Acting Deans. We have been delighted to welcome our current Acting Dean, Bishop Edward Holland. Bp Edward was formerly a Suffragan Bishop of the Diocese in Europe. From 1972 to 1974 he was the Precentor at our Cathedral.

Rock of Ages Campaign
The Rock of Ages Campaign was offically launched at the Cathedral on Thursday 16 November 2006.
