St. Mary and Archangel Michael's Coptic Orthodox Cathedral - details

Located close to the Lode Lane and Solihull Bypass junction.

Near the X2 and X12 bus routes.

It is a Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Solihull.

Built on the site of St Ninian's United Reformed Church.

Construction began in 2017, the building took shape in 2018 and was completed by 2022.

Looks like the previous church moved out by the late 2000s, then the Coptic community took over the building around 2012, and it was still standing by 2016.

Was the first cathedral to be built in the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull.
