Wren’s City of London Churches offers a fascinating journey through the architectural legacy left by Sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of 1666. Of the eighty-eight churches destroyed, Wren designed fifty-one remarkable replacements—alongside his masterpiece, St Paul’s Cathedral.

Though many original buildings have since been lost to time, development, or war, twelve Wren churches survive largely unchanged. This beautifully illustrated guide by John Christopher explores these historic sites, comparing archival views with how they appear today. It is an accessible introduction to Wren’s vision, the evolution of the City landscape, and the enduring beauty of his church designs.

A perfect companion for architecture enthusiasts, London explorers, and admirers of Wren’s extraordinary contribution to the city.
