The experience
Westminster Abbey is one of London’s most iconic buildings. It was originally called the Collegiate Church of Saint Peter at Westminster, and can be found on Parliament Square, next to the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. It is a large Gothic abbey church and is a traditional place of coronation. It's also the burial site for 17 of the UK’s monarchs and 8 former prime Ministers. This royal church offers daily services for all and is a World Heritage Site with over a thousand years of history.
Coronation Chair
Created for King Edward I in 1296, the chair has been the seat for the crowning of every monarch since 1308, including Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth II. It is the oldest piece of furniture in the UK that is still used for its original intention.
Poets’ Corner
The literary corner of the Abbey is named due to the large amount of poets and writers buried there, including Geoffrey Chaucer, Charles Dickens, Rudyard Kipling and Thomas Hardy, as well as many memorial stones and busts dedicated to the likes of Shakespeare and loved Scottish poet Robert Burns.
Royal Connections
