A church in the Westminster district of London, officially called the Collegiate Church of Saint Peter. Since William I (the Conqueror), it has been the place of coronation for successive British kings and queens. It originated as a church dedicated to Peter in the 7th century and belonged to the Benedictine Order. In the mid-11th century, Edward the Confessor built a Norman-style church. In the mid-13th century, Henry III remodeled it (consecrated in 1269) in the French Gothic style modeled after Reims Cathedral, which became the basis for the current building.
