Today’s Abbey highlight is the Quire. Since the 10th Century, music has been a key part of our tradition of worship. The Quire is where the Abbey choir sings from at our choral services. Other stalls are assigned to clergy and officers of the Abbey and to the High Commissioners for the Commonwealth countries when they attend services. The original medieval quire stalls were replaced in the 18th century and again by the present ones in 1848. Discover more: https://www.westminster-abbey.org/about-
