St Stephen Walbrook: A place of celebration
St Stephen Walbrook Church, Sir Christopher Wren’s masterpiece, has been described as one of the ten most important buildings in England. The main space is crowned by the first dome to be built in the UK, predating St. Paul's Cathedral.
The interior, which has been beautifully restored & renovated in the latter part of 2024 and into 2025, is focused around a central stone altar, carved by Henry Moore in travertine marble, which stands on an elegant white marble floor surrounded by circular pews which are removable.
The main space can accommodate a number of event formats including product launch events, private events, team or client celebrations, corporate dinners, fashion shows and fundraising events. The Nave can facilitate up to 100 guests for a drinks reception followed by a seated dinner around the circular altar, up to 150 guests enjoying a standing drinks reception beneath Wren’s magnificent dome and up to 260 guests for a recital or concert with additional seating added.
Below the church is a small crypt with brick arches which was the birthplace of The Samaritans, the world’s first telephone helpline. The ministry of the church continues to focus on wellbeing and mental health today.
Located by Bank Station St Stephen Walbrook is a hidden gem within the city perfect for events and celebrations.
