The city's origins go back to the Iron Age. The Romans called it "Sorviodunum". In modern Welsh the city is Caersallog. There was a battle between the West Saxons and the Britons here, after which the place was called "Searoburh". The Normans built a castle and called it "Searesbyrig" or "Seresberi".
The Walking Madonna (Tuesday 13th May 2003) In the Cathedral Close is the most potent symbol of resurrection – Elizabeth Frink’s Walking Madonna, striding forth to bring Christ into the world – not as the teenage Virgin, pregnant with the new humanity, but an older Mary, stripped down, thin and ascetic, stomach hollow, face pinched and haggard with suffering – one who has been through the experience of the Pieta and held the dead body of her son across her knee, but now is determined and invigorated with resurrection life – “walking with purposeful compassion as a member of the community of the Risen Christ, to bring love where love is absent.”
Salisbury Cathedral from the Cathedral Close. At 123 metres (404 feet), the spire is the tallest in the UK.
Стоунхендж (Stonehenge) — всемирно известное каменное мегалитическое сооружение-кромлех на Солсберийской равнине в графстве Уилтшир в Англии, расположенное примерно в 130 км к юго-западу от Лондона. Большинство исследователей, рассматривая Стоунхендж с историко-археологических и астрономических позиций, приводят его как доказательство блестящих астрономических познаний древних британцев.
