Visit to St Paul’s Church, Covent Garden

Nickie Aiken MP at St Paul’s Church, Covent Garden

St Paul's Church, Covent Garden is no exception to the amazing people, businesses and organisations that make the Two Cities a wonderful place to live, work, and visit.

The Anglican church in the heart of London's Covent Garden is affectionately known as The Actors' Church because of its long association with the theatre community.

As part of Nickie Aiken's Two Cities Summer Tour, she met with the Rev. Simon Grigg to learn more about the church’s work.

Built by Inigo Jones, the church has been open since 1633. Its church gardens also offer a quiet oasis in the heart of the bustling Covent Garden.

As well as providing a place of prayer, contemplation and worship, St. Paul’s also hosts musical and theatrical performances.
