Dunblane Cathedral

Dunblane Cathedral is the larger of the two parish churches serving Dunblane in Scotland. It was once the home of the bishops of Dunblane, until the abolition of bishops after the Scottish Reformation. Technically, therefore, it is no longer a cathedral, as there are still no bishops in the Church of Scotland. It is nevertheless one of the finest church buildings in Scotland.

It contains the graves of Margaret Drummond, a mistress of King James IV of Scotland and her two sisters.

Unusually, the building is owned by the Crown, through the government agency Historic Scotland.

It is one of four churches in the town, the others are St. Blane's (another Church of Scotland congregation, named after the town's founder), St. Mary's (an Episcopal church) and the Catholic Church of the Holy Family.

The current minister (since 1988) is the Reverend Colin McIntosh
