Explore a place that’s touched the lives of kings, queens, statesmen and soldiers, poets, priests, heroes and villains since 960AD. Westminster Abbey has been the coronation church since 1066 and is the resting place of more than 3,000 great Britons.
In 2018, the abbey unveiled its first major structural addition in more than a quarter of a millennium: a new tower that leads to The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Galleries.
