St Paul’s Cathedral is a great architectural site of London, masterpiece of Christopher Wren, who rebuiltthe City’s churches after the Great Fire of 1666.
This Cathedral was completed in 1711, it was England’s first purpose-built Protestant cathedral, and has many similarities with St Peter’s in Rome, notably in its ornate dome. One of its bells, Great Paul, was the largest in Europe until the bell cast for the 2012 Olympics. The hour bell, Great Tom, strikes the hour and marks the death of royalty and senior church officials. The cathedral has a reputation for music, and draws its choristers from St Paul’s Cathedral School.
