The beautiful Chapel in the heart of Wren's original buildings is ideal for concerts, music recitals and carol services as well as for wedding ceremonies and christenings. The Chapel, which features an impressive mural of The Resurrection by Sebastiano Ricci, is home to a professional choir.

This church was consecrated by the Bishop of London on St Luke's Day, 18th October 1824 and was built because the original parish church (now known as Chelsea Old Church) was regarded as too small for the increasing population.
Standing just a few yards from the River Thames, this historic church has a history going back into the depths of the Dark Ages. There was almost certainly a church in this spot by the 8th century, and it served as the parish church for Chelsea before the area was absorbed into the growing London metropolis.
The only remaining military chapel in London, The Guards Chapel was rebuilt in a beautifully spare style following almost total destruction by a flying bomb in 1944.
