The Abbey Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, Bath, commonly known as Bath Abbey, is an Anglican parish church and a former Benedictine monastery in Bath, Somerset, England. Founded in the 7th century, Bath Abbey was reorganised in the 10th century and rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries; major restoration work was carried out by Sir George Gilbert Scott in the 1860s. It is one of the largest examples of Perpendicular Gothic architecture in the West Country.

This Abbey is steeped in history and is well worth a visit. The architecture on the outside is intricate and holds many statues and figures. It also marks the start of the Cotswold way

In the square next to and in front of the Abbey you can always see and hear great street musicians!
