Brompton Oratory
Travel Information and nearby accommodation
An ornate (that's putting it mildly!) Italian Catholic church built in 1884. Magnificent organ containing nearly 4000 pipes. The third widest nave in Britain after Westminster Abbey and York Minster. This extraordinary Roman Catholic church is actually the Oratory of St Philip Neri, but it is more commonly, though inaccurately, called the Brompton Oratory. The structure was begun in 1878 and the remarkable dome completed by 1896 in flamboyant Baroque style. The nave is exceeded in width only by Westminster Abbey and York Minster.
