Eton College Chapel - HFF. - a photo on Flickriver

Eton College Chapel - HFF.

            At the heart of Henry VI’s Foundation was College Chapel, dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, and begun in 1441. From the start, therefore, regular services have provided the context for the day to day existence and business of the community. The Christian faith on which the College was founded remains the guiding principle for our collective spiritual life.
After their first two years, boys attend a mixture of services in College Chapel and assemblies elsewhere. In their third year they go to two weekday services, and in their final years to one or two weekday services and to a fuller service on most Sundays.
The chapel was planned to be a little over double its actual length, but this plan was never completed owing to the downfall of the founder King Henry VI. A plaque on a building opposite the west end marks the point to which it should have reached. The Chapel is built in the late Gothic or Perpendicular style.
