Elgin Cathedral is a historic ruin in Elgin, Moray, north-east Scotland. The cathedral—dedicated to the Holy Trinity—was established in 1224 on land granted by King Alexander II outside the burgh of Elgin and close to the River Lossie. It replaced the cathedral at Spynie, 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) to the north, that was served by a small chapter of eight clerics. The new and bigger cathedral was staffed with 18 canons in 1226 and then increased to 23 by 1242. After a damaging fire in 1270, a rebuilding programme greatly enlarged the building. It was unaffected by the Wars of Scottish Independence but again suffered extensive fire damage in 1390 following an attack by Robert III's brother Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, also known as the Wolf of Badenoch. In 1402 the cathedral precinct again

  • La Catedral d'Elgin, de vegades es denomina La llanterna del Nord, és un conjunt de ruïnes històriques situades a la ciutat d'Elgin al Consell de Moray, al nord-est d'Escòcia. Les càtedres dels primers bisbes de Moray estaven localitzats a les esglésies de Birnie, Kineddar i Spynie. El Bisbe Bricius va obtenir autoritat papal per establir una seu fixa parasu catedral en Spynie en 1206, però va demanar permís al papa abans de 1216 per traslladar-la a Elgin. No obstant això la catedral va romandre en Spynie fins a 1224, quan va ser finalment traslladada a Elgin pel successor de Bricius, Andreas. La construcció d'aquesta catedral es va completar a la fi del segle xiii. La seva sala capitular octogonal, una característica única en les catedrals d'Escòcia, es troba gairebé intacta. Les naus contenen les tombes i efígies d'alguns dels bisbes, així com d'alguns dels poderosos benefactors de la catedral. En 1390 la catedral i la Vila Real d'Elgin van ser cremats per , , també conegut com el Llop de Badenoch. Les mènsules de la catedral van ser atacades i destruïdes una vegada més en 1402 pels seguidors del Senyor de les Illes. Es van dur a terme importants reparacions de la Catedral als segles XV i XVI abans que caigués en desús i en la ruïna després de la Reforma escocesa. La preservació de l'edifici va començar lentament al segle xix, però en la segona meitat del segle xx, amb la renovació de les deteriorades pedres, l'edifici va ser totalment estabilitzat. (ca)

The new and bigger cathedral was staffed with 18 canons in 1226 and then increased to 23 by 1242. After a damaging fire in 1270, a rebuilding programme greatly enlarged the building. It was unaffected by the Wars of Scottish Independence but again suffered extensive fire damage in 1390 following an attack by Robert III's brother Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, also known as the Wolf of Badenoch. In 1402 the cathedral precinct again suffered an incendiary attack by the followers of the Lord of the Isles. The number of clerics required to staff the cathedral continued to grow, as did the number of craftsmen needed to maintain the buildings and surroundings. The cathedral went through periods of enlargement and renovation following the fires of 1270 and 1390 that included the doubling in length of the choir and the provision of outer aisles to the northern and southern walls of both the nave and choir. Today, these walls are at full height in some places and at foundation level in others yet the overall cruciform shape is still discernible. A mostly intact octagonal chapter house dates from the major enlargement after the fire of 1270. The gable wall above the double door entrance that links the west towers is nearly complete and was rebuilt following the fire of 1390. It accommodates a large window opening that now only contains stub tracery work and fragments of a large rose window. Recessed and chest tombs in both transepts and in the south aisle of the choir contain effigies of bishops and knights, and large flat slabs in the now grass-covered floor of the cathedral mark the positions of early graves. The homes of the dignitaries and canons, or manses, stood in the chanonry and were destroyed by fire on three occasions: in 1270, 1390 and 1402. The two towers of the west front are mostly complete and were part of the first phase of construction. Only the precentor's manse is substantially intact while two others have been incorporated into private buildings. A protective wall of massive proportions surrounded the cathedral precinct, but only a small section has survived. The wall had four access gates, one of which—the Pans Port—still exists. The number of canons had increased to 25 by the time of the Scottish Reformation in 1560 when the cathedral was abandoned and its services transferred to Elgin's parish church of St Giles. After the removal of the lead waterproofing of the roof in 1567, the cathedral fell steadily into decay. The building was still largely intact in 1615 but in the winter of 1637, a storm brought down the roof covering the eastern limb. In the spring of 1711, the central steeple above the crossing collapsed taking the walls of the nave with it. Ownership was transferred from the Church to the Crown in 1689 but that made no difference to the building's continuing deterioration. Only in the early years of the 19th Century did the Crown begin the conservation process—the stabilisation of the structure proceeded through until the end of the 20th Century with the large-scale improvements to the two western towers.

Em 1402, o recinto da catedral sofreu, de novo, um incêndio posto pelos seguidores do . O número de clérigos necessários para manter a catedral continuou a crescer, assim como o número de artesãos necessários para manter os edifícios e os arredores. O número de cónegos aumentou para 25 na época da Reforma Escocesa em 1560, quando a catedral foi abandonada e os seus serviços foram transferidos para a igreja paroquial de Elgin, St Giles. Após a remoção do chumbo que impermeabilizava o tecto, em 1567, a catedral foi sendo abandonada, entrando em decadência. Sua deterioração atingiu o auge no século XIX, altura em que o prédio estava numa condição significativamente ruinosa. A catedral passou por períodos de ampliação e renovação a seguir os incêndios de 1270 e 1390 que incluíram o duplicação do comprimento do coro, e a construção de corredores externos para as paredes a norte e a sul da nave e do coro. Hoje, essas paredes atingiram o seu máximo de altura em alguns lugares e ao nível das fundações em outros, mas a sua forma cruciforme ainda é discernível. A sala do capítulo octogonal, no geral quase intacta, data da grande ampliação depois do incêndio de 1270. A parede do frontão acima da entrada da porta dupla que liga as torres ocidentais está quase completa e foi reconstruída após o incêndio de 1390. Acomoda uma grande abertura para o exterior que agora apenas contém traços e fragmentos de uma grande janela em rosa. Os túmulos embutidos transeptos e no corredor sul do coro contêm efígies de bispos e cavaleiros, e grandes lajes planas no agora piso coberto de relva da catedral marcam as posições das sepulturas iniciais. As casas dos dignitários e dos cónegos foram destruídas pelo fogo em três ocasiões: em 1270, 1390 e 1402. As duas torres da frente ocidental estão praticamente intactas e faziam parte da primeira fase de construção. Somente a casa do chantre está; duas outros foram incorporadas em edifícios privados. Uma parede protectora de proporções maciças cerca o recinto da catedral, mas apenas uma pequena secção sobreviveu. A parede tinha quatro portões de acesso, um dos quais - o Pans Port - ainda existe.
