Westminster Abbey
London
This famous abbey in Westminster, situated near to the House of Parliament, is the
place of the coronation, marriage and burial of British monarchs and has been since
1066. Its formal name is actually 'The Collegiate Church of St Peter, Westminster'
but is known by the popular title of 'Westminster Abbey'.
The present building dates mainly from the thirteenth to sixteenth centuries and
is steeped in British history. With a gothic mixture of styles, the current building
was started in 1245 and has many interesting features such as the titled floor in
the Chapter House dating to the 13th century and the organ built in 1937.
Every year Westminster Abbey welcomes over one million visitors, many to worship
at the daily services, and many to see the tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Royal Tombs
and the Shrine of Edward the Confessor, the Coronation Chair, Lady Chapel and the
Royal Chapels.
Over 3,000 people are buried in the Church and Cloisters and there are over 600
monuments and memorials. There are audio guides available in eight languages as
well as a highly-popular verger-led tour.
