always referred to popularly and


informally as Westminster Abbey, is a
large, mainly Gothic church, in
Westminster, London, just to the west
of the Palace of Westminster. It is the
traditional place of coronation and
burial site for English. Once a week,
there are special events and festivals,
lectures and debates, concerts to bell
ringing…
The Westminster Abbey Museum is
located in the 11th century vaulted
undercroft of St Peter. The exhibits
include a unique collection of royal and
other funeral effigies, together with
other treasures, including the 13th
century altarpiece known as the
Westminster Retable.
It’s classified as World Heritage Site by
the UNESCO since 1987.
