The Abbey never charges people who want to worship. But we do rely almost entirely on paying visitors and tourists. The costs of running the Abbey and maintaining the historic buildings are covered largely from these admission fees – Westminster Abbey receives no funding from the Crown or the Church and only occasional project support from the State.
