City of London financial district - St Andrew Undershaft Church

A Church of England church located on St. Mary Axe, and is a rare example of a City church that survived both the Great Fire of London and the Blitz.

The present building was constructed in 1532 but a church has existed on the site since the 12th century

Beyond the church stands THE GHERKIN
