About

The Lord Mayor’s Chapel is a stunning medieval chapel, formerly part of the Abbey of St Augustine. The Chapel is located in the heart of Bristol, just across from College Green and Bristol Cathedral.

For hundreds of years, it has been a place of sanctuary amongst the busyness of the City. In 1722 The Lord Mayor’s Chapel became the official place of worship of The Lord Mayor of Bristol and has remained so ever since. Today, an active community participate in worship here every Sunday.
