R. E.

Wonderful peaceful chapel. Lady gray and Anne Boleyn were buried here. It's amazing to see all the plagues dedicated to many people including army Sargent's, their is a candle vigil you can light a candle for a lost loved one aswell.

K. M.

We went to the Superbloom at the Tower and did the Yeomen tour of the Tower absolutely brilliant and learned a couple of thing in to the bargin. We went on to do The Crown Jewels amazing. Had watched Clive the news reader as he did a TV program on the brilliant. Ken 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

This is a very special place. It is a privilege to be able to visit the resting place of so many brave people, including three Queens. Very beautiful. Very moving.

J. S.

This chapel is the burial place of all the people killed in the Tower and Tower Hill, including Thomas More and three Queens.

s. l.

Magical place. I'm not religious at all but the history is overwhelming. Read the role call of yeoman warders and ask why it only starts at 1827 when they've been around a lot longer. The answer is fascinating as much as it is interesting. Leave a donation and light a candle 🕯 for a lost loved one.

K. N.

Beautiful and peaceful. Nice to be able to read all about the people buried there. The fact that is it a working Chapel to makes it extra special being part of such a historic landmark

S. C.

Burial place of Queen Ann Boleyn amongst others. In the grounds of the Tower of London.

B. 1.

Especially for history buffs, every corner of the Tower of London is a great Experience, and the Chapel is no different. Being able to stand in the places where decisions have been made is truely inspiring.

M. H.

Cool historical chapel. Ann Boylen is buried here.

J. H.

I visited in my role as a City Livery Beadle attending a service here for the first time. What a charming "little" church with an excellent choir and a Rector with a wonderful sense of fun, and passionate delivery. Go if ypu get the chance.

M. D.

Inside the Tower of London, very historic as the Yoeman Warder explained

C. L.

Always a good welcome here, 9.15 am Sunday said communion is short and sweet. The choir at the 11 am sung Eucharist makes for a special service.

R. A.

A lovely little chapel, it is small but there's a bit to see and soak up the atmosphere, it's also the perfect place to stay cool for a bit if it's a hot day, definitely pop in for a while.

S. L.

Absolutely gorgeous chapel. Easy to feel God's presence here.

K. S.

Beautiful building with a lot of memorials. Just a nod to Lady Jane Grey sadly.

D. C.

Lovely visit . Really nice to know you can go to a Sunday service for free

B. S.

Beautiful Chapel with loads of history, a peaceful place to visit and contemplate

S. M.

Very pleasant chapel within the confines of the Tower of London

K. R.

Great architecture, if you like architectural design or history, come.

Bifore I enter into this review,addressed to the Chapel Royal St. Peter ad Vincula in London,would like to point out that the nex ones will be addressed to other London churches no less important,from the historical point of view ,of this Chapel. As for the order of release of the review s,it is not dictated by the importance of the church bat simply on the basis of my visits to these sacred places. The name of this Chapel in Italian is translated:SAN Pietro in Catene;it is the ufficiale church the London Tower. ‘Tis Chapel,according to historical sources,was built in 1520 and over the centuries became famous as the burial place of famous people,who were unjustly executed in the tower adjacent to the church.Its construction began under Henry VIII of England and was completed after ten years. It’s architectural style reflects the historical period under the Tudor . After lengthy and in depth study by historians, it was possible to say that this place of worship, was built on the ruins of a previous religions building and which dates back to the time before the Norman conquest of England (maybe shortly after the thousand).Inside this church,tourist can admire many monuments well preserved over time and therefore in all their artistic splendour. These monuments in the majority commemorate the first victims of the reign of Henry VIII and, of course,among them you can see that of wrongly executed Anne Boleyn.Given The existing quantity of existing monuments in this church,I leave free space to the tourist to expand his knowledge through his direct observation.

Why wouldn't you want to come to church in the Tower of London. Inspirational and warm welcome from the chaplain. Incredible choir and organ and a beautiful setting. Worship rooted in the tradition of the church of England Prayer Book with its poetry of liturgy that is rich with deep theology and spiritual truth. Inspirational and Transcendent.

C. B.

Duch a lovely Chapel,so much history!

R. D.

The guide you get when buying your ticket clearly shows this is a no photography area, to show respect that it's a place of worship. It's beautiful though, there are a lot of people buried here in the crypt that died tragically on the green a few metres away having been beheaded. There is a list on the wall as you enter on the left. Beautiful old stone building.

W. F.

A truly special place! Went for Sunday matins (no charge) and the choir and organ are music amazing. It's a small, friendly congregation too ... ironically at London's most infamous venue! Pop in for a service. It's memorable but you still won't forget the poor souls buried underneath the floor stones!

M. i.

A must see as part of the Warder tour to get an appreciation for the chapel's history (and current residents). Pictures are prohibited and rightfully so to show respect for those interned here - our Warder mentioned it could be over 1500+ bodies. The story of the young Queen Anne Boleyn that our Warder Mark expertly and reverently told was tragic and brave at the same time.

R. A.

A really pretty little Chapel that is steeped in history, and the last place you visit when you do a Yeoman tour. This little Chapel also contains the headless bodies of three previous Queens of England: Anne Boleyn, Catherine Howard and Jane Grey. A must visit for any Tudor fan. Note that if you're not on a tour, you can only visit here in the last hour of opening

M. M.

“In truth there is no sadder spot on earth than that little cemetery.” Final resting place of Anne Boleyn, Catherine Howard, Lady Jane Grey, and so many others during the reign of Henry VIII.

j. e.

Private tour not available to the public

W. P.

S. b.

Never visited before and we really enjoyed the day.

E. L.

Pretty chapel. Lots of open seating. Building has been maintained very well. Highly recommend going with a Yeoman tour- you learn a lot!

G. B.

See it as part of the Warder tour. The narrative is very informative, and the only way to see the inside. There is a rich history here, some of which we will never know. Watch your step entering and leaving, the Warder promises to laugh if you trip.

A. B.

British history live, amazing

A. J.

Small chapel in the Tower of London. Great spot for Tudors fans - that where King Henry VIII's three beheaded wifes lies.

T. J.

Its like stepping back in time seeing where kings and Queens lived and where beheaded just a shame i never saw the church where lies two Queens of Henry Tudor i still will go back and see the final resting place of Queen Anne Boylen the hated and loved Queen of England.

M. W.

Beautiful chapel, brimming with history, many famous English aristocrats and royalty buried with and without their heads!

G. C.

In this atmospheric little chapel you can pay your respects to 4 of the most significant victims of the Tudors. Four women, 3 beheaded, one the unrecognised queen of England, all who crossed the mighty vengeful Tudors. They lie side by side in front of the altar.

P. C.

Stunning place with masses Of history associated with the Tower of London, especially Henry VIII and various wives!

(Translated) The beautiful, formerly royal chapel is located in the Tower of London and is a rare sight. The walls and the monuments in the interior tell the story of the monarchs not only from the Tudor dynasty for centuries. The Platinum Jubilee concert given by the band's brilliant choir accompanied by the church organ was an unforgettable musical treat, accentuated by the band's amazing acoustics. (Original) Die wunderschöne, ehemals königliche Kapelle befindet sich in der Tower of London und stellt eine seltene Sehenswürdigkeit dar. Die Wände und die Monumenten im Interior erzählen über Jahrhunderte die Geschichte der Monarchen nicht nur aus der Tudor Dynastie. Der Platinum Jubiläum Konzert gegeben von dem brillanten Chor der Kapelle in Begleitung des Kirchenorgels war ein unvergessliches musikalisches Genuß, betont von der der erstaunlich gute Akustik der Kapelle.

(Translated) Beautiful little chapel right on the edge of the courtyard. During our visit, an organ player was playing new pieces and composing individual parts. At the entrance there is a guard who takes care of taking off the headgear and keeping calm. (Original) Schöne kleine Kapelle direkt am Rand des Burghofs. Bei unserem Besuch spielte ein Orgelspieler gerade neue Stück und komponierte einzelne Stellen um. Am Eingang steht ein Wärter, der auf das Abnehmen der Kopfbedeckung sowie auf die Einhaltung von Ruhe achtet.

(Translated) I was in September 2017 as an Anne Boleyn fan and I wanted to get pretty close to the grave, but unfortunately it was cordoned off 15 meters beforehand. It was a shame I was looking forward to it. A small criticism is that you can not go into the chapel alone, but only with the leaders who tell stories in the front of the square! and I would have liked that that what the guide told us in the chapel would also be available on the Audio Digital Guide so that you could come along with what he said but all in all it was great !! (Original) Ich war im September 2017 als Anne Boleyn Fan wollte ich gerne an das Grab ziemlich nah ran nur leider war es gute 15 meter vorher abgesperrt sehr sehr schade darauf hatte ich mich gefreut . ein kleiner Kritik punkt ist noch dass man nicht alleine in die Chapel reingehen darf sonder nur mit den Führern die erst vorne auf dem Platz Geschichten erzählen ! und ich Hätte mir gewünscht das ,.dass was der Führer uns in der chapel erzählt hat auch auf dem Audio Digital Guide verfügbär wäre damit man auch mitkommt mit dem was er erzählt aber alles in einem war es dennoch toll !!
