Church House, Grade II listed building in Dean's Yard, Westminster, United Kingdom
Church House Westminster contains 19 event spaces spread across three floors, including meeting rooms, conference halls, and a virtual broadcasting studio. The spaces are arranged around a central assembly hall with a glass dome and offer different sizes for various occasions.
During World War II, the building served temporarily as the seat of the House of Lords and hosted the first United Nations General Assembly in 1946. This use as an international meeting place shaped the importance of the house beyond its original church purpose.
The Assembly Hall houses a three-manual pipe organ built by The John Compton Organ Company, adding a musical dimension to the space. The instrument complements the hall's acoustics and is played during certain events.
The venue accommodates up to 600 guests, with Westminster and St James's Park stations both reachable within a seven-minute walk. The different halls suit various group sizes, from small meetings to large conferences.
The central assembly hall features a 30-foot glass dome designed by architect Sir Herbert Baker, flooding the space with daylight. The dome structure rests on slender columns and creates an airy effect inside the hall.
