Heathrow’s Chapel of St. George was opened in 1968 as a joint initiative of Anglican, Roman Catholic and Free Churches.
Armistice Day Service at St George’s Chapel
Tuesday 11 November
The Chaplaincy are looking for people to attend the Armistice Day Service on 11 November at St George's Chapel.
The Service will run from 10:45 to 11:30 and include a two-minute silence.
Representatives will lay wreaths on behalf of Heathrow and the Heathrow Emergency Services. Our Chaplaincy will lead reflections and prayers relevant to those of all faiths and none.
For more than 50 years, St Georges Chapel has offered a quiet place for travellers and airport colleagues to join in Christian worship. It is unusual in being located underground, accessed down a spiral staircase.

The iconic spiral staircase - St. George's Chapel
Occasional Masses will take place on other Holy Days of Obligation and Solemnities, but these are very variable.
Please note, the Chapel is not open to drop in, however the Memorial Garden remains available as a place for quiet, reflection and prayer.
Garden of Remembrance
At ground level, the Garden of Remembrance is a sheltered courtyard, built directly over the Chapel, whose walls hold a large variety of plaques in memory of both airport colleagues and flights lost. Any company based at Heathrow wanting to commemorate a colleague who has died with a plaque in the garden should contact the chaplaincy team at the address below. There are wooden benches and flower beds, creating an attractive location for those in need of a peaceful place away from the hubbub of the terminals, or for airport colleagues to enjoy a quiet lunch break. Some beautiful artwork around the walls of the Garden offers helpful suggestions for active contemplation.
