Bath Abbey
September 29th, 2006Built in 1499, Bath Abbey is a stunning example of British medieval architecture. Over the past twelve centuries, three different churches have stood on the site. The West Front of the Abbey depicts a dream that the churches founder, bishop Oliver King had, in which the old Norman church that stood on the land was torn down, and the current Abbey built in its place. The interior of Bath Abbey features beautiful Bath stone and a fan-vaulted ceiling designed in the 16th century. Bath Abbey is located in the heart of the city centre.
