St. Leonard's Church

The Anglican parish church of St. Leonard in Middleton is one of the oldest in England. Information about it dates back to 1412.

On the south side of the building there is a wide square tower, on which there is a wooden bell tower, built in 1667. Under it there is a mechanical clock with manual winding, which still works. In 1896, the dilapidated structure was restored and completely restored, resulting in elements of the Gothic style. The building has a complex arched structure with massive cast-iron columns.

In the center of the church hall there is a wooden altar decorated with fine carvings, around which old paintings depicting saints are hung. To the left of the altar is an organ installed in 1776.

The Church of St. Leonard is a unique architectural monument that is very popular among tourists. In August 2012, its six hundredth anniversary was magnificently celebrated.
