St George's Church, Hanover Square
Nearby St George's Church, Hanover Square

- Visitor Information
St George's was finished in 1724 at a cost of ?10,000, part of the great church-building program of Queen Anne. It's a classic piece of Queen Anne architecture, though somewhat in need of restoration. George Frederick Handel was a regular worshipper at St George's, and partly as a result, it has now become home to a regular program of classical music, including the annual Handel festival. The reredos, from the workshop of Grinling Gibbons, frame 'The Last Supper', painted by William Kent in 1724. The windows above contain early 16th-century Flemish glass from Antwerp.Location map of St George's Church, Hanover Square
