3. HISTORY
Westminster Abbey was founded as a Benedictinemonastery. This was when most European Christians
were Roman Catholic, but following the Reformation
in the 16th century the Church of England was
formed. Many traditions remain in the Abbey but
services are conducted in English, and not Latin.
Westminster Abbey is the nation's Coronation Church
and also the burial and memorial place for historical
figures from the last thousand years of British
history.
Westminster Abbey is still a working church and all
are welcome to attend the regular services.
