St Lawrence Jewry was founded in the 12th century and dedicated to Saint Lawrence who was roasted alive on a grid iron in 3rd century Rome. The church was rebuilt by Wren between 1670 and 1687. It was one of Wren's most expensive City Churches and was badly gutted on 29th December 1940. Restored in 1957, it is now the official Church of the City of London.
