St Mary, the Virgin, Aldermanbury, a parish church in the City of London first recorded in the 12th century, was destroyed in the Great Fire of 1666 and subsequently rebuilt by Christopher Wren in the English Baroque style. The reconstructed church survived until the Blitz of 1940, which gutted the interior while leaving the walls intact. In 1966, these surviving stones were transported to Fulton, Missouri, where they were reassembled within the grounds of Westminster College as part of the National Churchill Museum. The original London site near the Guildhall is now marked by a garden. The building is Grade II listed.
