For nearly five centuries, Canterbury in Kent has been the spiritual seat of the Church of England. Other important monuments in Canterbury include the austere St Martin's Church, the oldest church in England; the ruins of St Augustine's Abbey, a reminder of St Augustine's missionary role in the Heptarchy since 597; and Christ Church Cathedral, a stunning combination of Romanesque and Perpendicular Gothic architecture where Archbishop Thomas Becket was murdered in 1170.
