Marble Church, Grade II listed church building in Bodelwyddan, Wales.

The Marble Church features a 62-meter tower, incorporating fourteen types of marble from Belgium, Italy, France, Ireland, and England in its interior design.

Lady Margaret Willoughby de Broke commissioned the church in 1856 to commemorate her husband Henry Peyto-Verney, completing construction in 1860 for 60,000 pounds.

The churchyard contains 112 Commonwealth graves, including Canadian soldiers from World War I and victims of the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic at Kinmel Camp.

Located near the A55 road, the church maintains regular visiting hours and offers guided tours highlighting its architectural elements and historical significance.

The church structure combines local limestone from Llanddulas with Aberdeen granite niches and thirteen different marble varieties throughout its interior spaces.
