Summary edit
| Description |
English: The Church of St. Bartholomew the Great St. Bartholomew the Great is one of London's oldest churches, built when Henry I, son of William the Conqueror, was King of England. It was founded in 1123 by Rahere, a courtier and favourite of King Henry I, as an Augustinian Priory and has been in continuous use as a place of worship since at least 1143 see http://www.greatstbarts.com/Pages/Church/Architecture%20and%20History/history.html. It is an active Anglican/Episcopal Church. The Priory was dissolved in 1539 and the nave of the Church was demolished. The monastic buildings were largely intact and the Canons' choir and sanctuary were preserved for parish use. Under Queen Mary, there was briefly a house of Dominican friars on the site, before it reverted to being a Parish Church under Queen Elizabeth I. It survived the Great Fire of 1666, but various parts of the building were damaged or destroyed through the centuries until restoration began in the 19th century. {Source: http://www.greatstbarts.com/ } |
