Welcome to the Collegiate Church of St Mary, Warwick

St Mary's Church is an historic landmark, tourist attraction and busy parish church set in the ancient town of Warwick.

People have worshipped on this site for over 1,000 years and we are proud to be the stewards of this rich heritage.

One of the largest churches in Britain, we offer a wide range of services, many featuring enchanting music from our choirs.

The repair and restoration of the iconic tower of St Mary’s is our immediate short-term priority and the focus of our current fundraising activity.
