This imposing Gothic church from the 10th century AD is one of the most famous buildings in the United Kingdom. It has played host to 16 royal weddings since its building, including that of Prince William and Kate Middleton. Additionally, the coronations of all British monarchs since 1066 have taken place here. In the older part of the Abbey-- underneath it-- is a royal museum. It has also been the site of many historic figures' burials.
