Winchester Cathedral at Winchester in Hampshire is one of the largest cathedrals in England, with the longest nave and overall length of any Gothic cathedral in Europe. Dedicated to the Holy Trinity, Saint Peter, Saint Paul, and Saint Swithun, it is the seat of the Bishop of Winchester and centre of the Diocese of Winchester. Full name is Cathedral Church of the Holy Trinity, and of St Peter and St Paul and of St Swithun. Jane Austen, who died in the city is buried in the cathedral's north aisle of the nave. In addition Winchester Cathedral is possibly the only cathedral to have had popular songs written about it. "Winchester Cathedral" was a UK top ten hit and a US number one song for The New Vaudeville Band in 1966. The cathedral was also the subject of the Crosby, Stills & Nash song, "Cathedral" from their 1977 album CSN. In 2005, the building was used as a film set for the The Da Vinci Code with the north transept used as the Vatican.
