The earliest part of the cathedral was built in 642 and is located in the north of the current cathedral. I consider the most beautiful Bible here, the Winchester Bible, the only surviving and greatest treasure in Winchester Cathedral.

The 468 works were written by a scribe over a period of thirty years, and at least six different talented painters painted expensive paints, including mercurial stones and gold, on calf parchment. Their ambitious work was never completed.
