In the game

The Gothic abbey church beside Parliament, with its twin west towers.

The real place

The abbey has hosted every English and British coronation since 1066. The present church was begun in 1245 under Henry III; the two west towers were added much later, in the 1740s, to a design by Nicholas Hawksmoor.

Visiting

Entry is ticketed except for services. Evensong is free and a quiet way to see the inside.
