Westminster Abbey. Westminster Abbey stands on
the site of an old Saxon church, erected about 616. Edward
the Confessor established the Abbey where we know it,
but it was entirely rebuilt by Henry III. and his son,
Edward I. The Chapel of Henry VII., where sleep most
of the kings and queens of England, dates about 1500, and
Wren added the towers in 1722-40.
The church is early
English in style, and shaped like a Latin Cross.
