Temple Church, London

Temple Church was built by the Knights Templar in the 12th century and served as their English headquarters.

It is famous for being a round church and was designed in this way to represent the circular Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. Temple Church is one of the prettiest and oldest churches in London and is famous for its choral music and organ recitals which are enhanced by the church's acoustics.

Temple Church was a key location in the controversial book The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown and also featured in the film.

The church is generally open everyday but if you are making a special journey, it may be worth calling to make sure that the church is open.

Opening Times

The Church is generally open every day but can be closed for special occasions. Call the Verger on 020 7353 3470 or email verger@templechurch.com, to confirm current opening hours.
