Westminster Abbey Tour Guide

Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Westminster Abbey has more than a thousand years of history. Benedictine monks built the original church sometime in the tenth century, establishing a monastery and a tradition of daily worship, which continues to this day. It was rebuilt in the middle of the 11th century and again 200 years later.The Abbey became the coronation church in 1066, when William the Conqueror was crowned and almost all monarchs since have been crowned here. It is the final resting place of seventeen monarchs and at least sixteen weddings have taken place here. The present church, begun by Henry III in 1245, is one of the most famous Gothic buildings in the country with the shrine of its Anglo-Saxon king (Edward the Confessor) as its centerpiece.It contains a treasure-trove of paintings, stained glass, carvings and sculptures, walkways and pavements, textiles, vaults and other artifacts. Westminster Abbey is also the place where some of the most significant people in the nation's history (royalty, heads-of-state, writers, actors and other cultural icons) are buried or commemorated; over 3300 people are represented here. Taken as a whole the tombs and memorials comprise the most significant single collection of history that Britain has to offer.
