“One of the capital’s most wonderful buildings.” (The Guardian)
St George's Bloomsbury is the sixth and final London church designed by the leading architect of the English Baroque, Nicholas Hawksmoor. Originally consecrated in 1731, St George's was reopened to the public in 2006 following a five-year restoration initiated and managed by the World Monuments Fund and made possible by the generosity of the Paul Mellon Estate and the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Today, St George's is a thriving parish church, concert venue and centre for community arts & education located at the heart of Bloomsbury, two minutes walk from the British Museum. Both the church and our new multimedia exhibition, Hawksmoor & Bloomsbury, are open daily to visitors.
