Where Christianity was reborn in Southern England.
Originally constructed at the same time and to a similar size as nearby Canterbury Cathedral, founded shortly after AD597 by St Augustine. From July 2017 there will be a new virtual reality tour, made in partnership with Canterbury Christchurch University, which allows visitors to experience the abbey as it was when it was in its prime.
The abbey is part of the Canterbury World Heritage Site, just a couple of minutes walk from the end of the high street.
