Information about Saint Paul's Cathedral:

Saint Paul's Cathedral is a large, Baroque style building in the city of London, England. The groundbreaking for the cathedral was in 1675. The cathedral was the fourth building to occupy the site and three previous cathedrals had been variously destroyed before construction began. The architect was Sir Christopher Wren, who is credited with building on 50 churches in London following the Great Fire of 1666. The building was the tallest in London until 1962. During the blitz, the cathedral was damaged, but was not destroyed, despite the fact the building was targeted by the German bombers. The cathedral, unlike other European churches, has few artifacts but several famous people are interred in the crypt, including the architect himself, The Duke of Wellington, Sir Winston Churchill, Florence Nightingale, the painters Sir Joshua Reynolds and JM Turner and Lord Horatio Nelson.
