What Awaits You at Westminster Abbey

Westminster Abbey was founded in 960 AD and is now one of London’s most famous attractions. It’s been a key part of British history for more than 1000 years, meaning it’s a wonderful place to visit when you’re in London. It’s also beautiful, with stained glass windows, wall paintings, and an amazing Gothic vault to marvel at. 

Westminster Abbey has been the coronation church of Britain since 1066, with William the Conqueror, Queen Victoria, and Queen Elizabeth II among the monarchs who have had ceremonies here. The stunning Abbey has also hosted many royal weddings, including the marriage of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. You might have watched their celebrations on television, but visiting the Abbey in person is truly magical!

Westminster Abbey also holds celebrations of life. Many influential people are buried or remembered here, including more than 100 writers. Poets’ Corner, as this part of the Abbey, is called, remembers Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, and many others.

Today, the rich history and impressive architecture of Westminster Abbey attract people from across the world. Many people also visit for worship, with services held daily.
