Movies filmed at Lincoln Cathedral

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Lincoln Cathedral as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

  • The King's Speech 2010
    “Though Lincoln Cathedral is architecturally a closer match to the Abbey, they preferred Ely, a favoured filming location.” Wikipedia
  • Napoleon 2023
    “The crew reportedly spent a week to prepare Lincoln Cathedral, which stood in for Notre-Dame de Paris.” Wikipedia
  • The Young Victoria 2009
    “Scenes set at Westminster Abbey were filmed at Lincoln Cathedral in September and October, and Ham House was substituted for Kensington Palace.” Wikipedia
  • The King 2019
    “Lincoln Cathedral was used in place of Westminster Abbey for the coronation scenes.” Wikipedia

Named here by Lincoln Cathedral’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Lincoln Cathedral, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
