Churches in Leicestershire

Church life in Leicestershire

Church life in Leicestershire reaches back well over a thousand years, and the county still holds everything from ancient parish churches at the centre of its villages to newer congregations meeting in schools and community halls. Leicester, the county town, holds many of the larger congregations, but active churches meet in market towns and villages right across the area. Whether you are moving to Leicestershire, visiting, or simply curious, the listings below cover congregations of every size and style.

Whether you are in Leicester or a village on the far side of the county, a church community is rarely far away. Our listings are drawn from public records, church websites and submissions from congregations themselves, and we are working towards a complete picture of Christian worship in every corner of Leicestershire.
