Cathedral Twitter Accounts Get into Mock Battle over Which is Best
- Updated Oct 06, 2017
Did you know that Monday, October 2nd was World Architecture Day? Probably not many people realized this, but one thing is sure: the people who run the Twitter accounts of several of the world’s cathedrals took it very seriously.
RelevantMagazine.com reports that, to commemorate World Architecture Day, St. Paul’s Cathedral in London sent out a tweet:
Today is #WorldArchitectureDay.

The Twitter account of St. Paul’s tagged several other cathedrals, but left out Coventry Cathedral which soon sent out their own tweet:
Realistically though, who else had the moon.....?! 🌒 pic.twitter.com/zSPCOgbYiu

Then Exeter Cathedral decided to join the battle to be the best:
Just the one moon though. We've got quite a few (and don't start @Nrw_Cathedral on dinosaurs...) pic.twitter.com/EV84qd4Yac

St. Paul’s couldn’t let the discussion rest there, however, tweeting out:
But do you have a way of getting to your moons? You can borrow our space rocket if you like. 🚀 pic.twitter.com/NCUDr6bCVR

Several other cathedrals also joined the Twitter battle, including York Minster, Ely, Lincoln, and Winchester.
