St Nicholas Cole Abbey
Fish, coffee and smudgy windows all appear in this beautifully restored Christopher Wren church which is also very well attended by the young city workforce.
All Hallows London Wall
No other City of London church is as surprising as this one. Its bleak and foreboding exterior betrays its crisp classical and bright interior.
St Sepulchre without Newgate
This church has the great combination of music and death! And who was St Sepulchre?
St Mary Aldermary
St Mary Aldermary is one of the few 17th century gothic churches you'll find in the City of London. At lunch you'll hear the hum of local workers enjoying their break but at the start and end of the day the relaxed breath of a meditation group.
St Vedast Alias Foster
St Vedast Alias Foster has a secret garden containing an ancient Syrian rock familiar to Agatha Christie, a Roman pavement and a memorial to a Russian soldier who is described thus: "This was a man".
St James Garlickhythe
Start your pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela here, but before you leave don't forget to listen to the church's famous bells and look for the mummified corpse hiding in the tower.
St Lawrence Jewry
Prominently placed on Guildhall Yard, this grand church has strong links with the City of London Corporation and the livery companies. Step inside for ceremonies, symbols and sensational stained glass windows.
St Botolph without Aldgate
Just outside the eastern gate of the City of London, the welcoming church of St Botolph without Aldgate hides London's oldest organ. Hear it played and enjoy its Georgian surroundings.
St Michael Cornhill
St Michael Cornhill looks like like all the other 18th century City churches on the outside, but walk inside to find a church full of Victorian gothic details.
St Martin within Ludgate
Bread shelves, pendulum-like chandelier from the West Indies, palindromes and a creepy crypt. What more could reside a City church?
St Mary Aldermanbury
You have to travel to another continent to find St Mary Aldermanbury, but here you'll find wildlife, horses, birds, swamp cypress trees and a memorial to those who brought us William Shakespeare.
The Dutch Church at Austin Friars
The Dutch Church is one of the most hidden of the City churches and one of the newest… but its history stretches back to the 16th century and its internal features are extraordinary.
St Anne and St Agnes
Hidden behind bushes and trees, the red bricks of St Anne & St Agnes can only be glimpsed, but push your way through and you'll be rewarded by architectural beauty and musical delights.
St Andrew by the Wardrobe
Q: What do a Scottish saint, Shakespeare, the Indian Orthodox Church and a King's wardrobe all have in common? A: St Andrew by the Wardrobe... another Christopher Wren church. Approached from the north it's hard to find through alleyways but from the south it looks like a castle on a hill.
St Edmund King and Martyr
Don't overlook this small City of London church with some unusual features, old and new. It's also the home of a rare ecumenical community.
St Benet Paul’s Wharf
This small cosy church is full of quirky features and unusual associations. Tune in to hear about Shakespeare, graffiti, celebrity weddings, heralds and women playwrights. On top of that, a warm welcome and rousing music awaits you in this Welsh Church from its congregants and its vicar, whether you speak the language or not.
