Afternoon Tea at Westminster Abbey
Westminster Abbey is a 10–15-minute walk from Victoria where you will alight from your morning tour. Make your way independently to Westminster Abbey passing under the arch towards Dean's Yard. Within it you will see the entrance to the Cellarium Café and Terrace set within the Abbey itself. As part of this experience, you will enjoy a delicious full Afternoon Tea which can either be enjoyed at lunch time prior to visiting Westminster Abbey, or after your visit.
Westminster Abbey
Explore over 1,000 years of history at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Westminster Abbey – England’s pre-eminent church and the site of every royal coronation since that of William the Conqueror in 1066. Plus see the tombs of former monarchs and important figures from Britain’s history.
Westminster Abbey is the location for the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III – set for 6th May 2023. This historic occasion will see the Coronation ceremony take place for the first time since that of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. See the Coronation chair as part of your visit.
The Coronation Chair
The Coronation Chair in St George’s Chapel is perhaps the most famous piece of furniture in the world. Commissioned by Edward I, ‘The Hammer of the Scots’, this ancient wooden chair has been sat on by every English and later, British, monarch at their coronation since the 13th century. Originally covered in gold leaf and glass, the chair was designed to house the ‘Stone of Destiny’, which was taken by Edward I as spoils of war.
Explore the Lady Chapel & Chapter House
Marvel at the fan-vaulted ceiling, carved pendants and ornate decorations that adorn every surface in the Lady Chapel; the burial place of 15 kings and queens including Elizabeth I, ‘Bloody’ Mary Queen of Scots and the Princes in the Tower.
