About St Magnus The Martyr

"Inexplicable Splendour of Ionian White and Gold"

T. S. Eliot

St Magnus church stands at the head of the old London Bridge in the City of London. It was Sir Christopher Wren’s most expensive parish church and the first to be visited by all those crossing into the City.

A beacon of the Anglo-Catholic tradition, we are open for daily prayer and celebrate a rich and musical High Mass each Sunday.

We welcome visitors from around the world to

marvel at the beautiful interior
see our world-famous 4 metre model of the old London Bridge
hear the music from our wonderul choir and organ
listen to our celebrated ring of 12 bells
set aside daily concerns and spend a time of peace and prayer.

High Mass is livestreamed every Sunday.
