Westminster Abbey
description: Westminster Abbey, located in the center of London, England, is a Gothic religious building with far-reaching historical significance. The church was first built in the 10th century, and the existing building was built in 1245, which has a history of more than 700 years. It has been the site of the coronation of British monarchs since 1066, and is the final resting place of more than 3,000 important British figures, including poets, scientists, and politicians. As a working church and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Westminster Abbey is of great cultural, architectural and religious value. The digital display of Westminster Abbey helps to reduce the direct impact of visitors on the building itself, protect heritage safety and increase public engagement. At the same time, open access to online resources also supports community cultural heritage and urban heritage preservation, in line with the United Nations Sustainable Cities and Communities goal (SDG 11).
