St James’s Church, Piccadilly, Anglican church in Piccadilly, London, England
St James's Church displays English Baroque architecture with a symmetrical brick exterior, large arched windows, and a square tower reaching skyward.
Christopher Wren designed this Grade I listed building in 1676, during the period of London reconstruction following the Great Fire of 1666.
The church maintains an active music program, hosting concerts by classical performers and contemporary artists in its acoustically refined interior space.
The church opens daily from morning to afternoon, offering regular worship services, guided tours, and maintains a garden space for reflection.
The Grinling Gibbons wooden carvings inside the church represent some of the finest examples of Baroque decorative art in England.
