January 2025This is an Anglican church designed by James Gibbs in the Neoclassical architectural style, with construction beginning in 1721 and completion in 1726. Dedicated to Saint Martin of Tours, a church has stood on this site since at least the medieval period. At the time, it served as a church for the rural areas outside the London city walls, but it has since become an important place of worship in central London. The church is distinguished by its domed spire and Corinthian columns, creating a striking exterior, while the interior is simple yet elegant. It is renowned for its chamber music performances and classical concerts, offering regular free lunchtime concerts and evening performances. In the crypt below, there is a café and gallery, making it a vibrant cultural and community hub.

January 2025Beautiful church - I came in last year with my Grandmother to see the church, and we had a coffee in the crypt which was a lovely atmosphere. We were hoping to see some famous epitaphs that were reportedly held at St Martins, and managed to find them stacked up in storage (after climbing over some boxes and stacked tables!). I then came again for the Christmas eve carol service 2024, which was an incredible experience and quite emotional. I’d hugely recommend this to anyone either living in London or visiting for Christmas!

January 2025Exquisite historic church, completed in 1726, replacing a Tudor church that previously stood on the same site. The design, by James Gibbs, has become one of London's most recognisable churches. It's well worth a look inside, where beautiful ceiling decorations, ornately detailed columns and galleries create an impression of space. The church's interior has a light, airy feel, and provides a place of calm to escape the crowds and bustle of the city streets. St Martin-in-the-Fields has a long history of helping in the fight against homelessness, and still holds regular services. The church is free to visit but donations are welcomed to support the upkeep of the building.
