Christian Worship has taken place in Gower over a period of fifteen hundred years. Many of our churches, some of which are seven hundred years old, probably stand where earlier, simpler structures of the Celtic period existed. The dedication of churches to Celtic saints and the existence of sculptured and lettered stones of great antiquity reinforce evidence in the Book of Llandaff, where places in Gower, mentioned in sixth century records, can still be identified.

For centuries, these Gower churches were the focal point of small rural communities. Today, too few people appreciate their beauty. Whether your interest is in architecture, history, woodcarving, stained glass, war memorials, graves of the famous or of ordinary people, please come and see our churches for yourself. Children are welcome and wherever possible, activities will be offered for them.
