Discover a tranquil world of art, fashion & history
Visit, film, exhibit, wonder, marry, celebrate, record, listen, show, be. The Grade II*-listed Fitzrovia Chapel, once the chapel of the former Middlesex Hospital and now beautifully preserved and restored, is a stunning hidden gem in the heart of the city. Never consecrated, the nineteenth century chapel is a luminous place to get married, display a beautiful object, steep yourself in history and architecture or just sit and reflect.

The Ward Revisited is now open until 5 February. Check our What’s On Page for opening times. Closed Mondays.
EXHIBITION: 6 JAN – 5 FEB 2023

Phantom Edit
26 FEB TO 1 MARCH Phantom Edit brings together two film works by the American artists Jacky Connolly and Garrett Pruter. Each film uses digital manipulation and complex editing techniques to reinvent plots from well-known media – in Connolly’s, the video game Grand Theft Auto V, and in Pruter’s, Alfred Hitchock’s seminal thriller, The Birds (1963).
Take a virtual tour inside the chapel and explore our history, culture and stunning architecture.
VENUE HIRE
A Gorgeous Space for all Occasions
Are you looking for the perfect space to get married, hold a talk, show your collection, launch a book or exhibit your art? The word ‘unique’ is overused. However, with its ornate Byzantine interior, soft light through stained glass windows and mosaic floors, the chapel is just that. It is a place like no other. And in these challenging times, we want to reassure you that if coronavirus restrictions prevent your wedding or other event from going ahead as planned, we will help you to reschedule your chapel hire at no extra cost. That’s a promise. We’re on your side.
