  • St Clement Danes ist eine anglikanische Kirche in der City of Westminster, London. Sie ist in der Nähe der Royal Courts of Justice auf der Strand zu finden. Die Kirche wurde 1682 von Sir Christopher Wren fertiggestellt. Die Kirche taucht auch in dem Kinderreim Oranges and Lemons, say the bells of St Clements auf, auch die Glocken der Kirche spielen die dazu passende Melodie. St Clement Eastcheap, in der City of London, reklamiert für sich den gleichen Anspruch. Im Gegensatz zu St Clement Eastcheap wurde auf dem Kirchhof von St Clement Danes Obst gelagert, welches gelegentlich durch die Church Wardens an bedürftige Kinder vergeben wurde. Dieser Brauch wird auch heute noch gelebt. Die Kirche ist neben St Mary le Strand eine von zwei Inselkirchen auf der Strand. (de)

Wren's building was gutted during the Blitz and not restored until 1958, when it was adapted to its current function as the central church of the Royal Air Force. The church is sometimes claimed to be the one featured in the nursery rhyme "Oranges and Lemons" and the bells do indeed play that tune every day at 9 am, noon, 3pm and 6pm—as reported in 1940 the church's playing of the tune was interrupted during World War II due to Nazi bombing. However, St Clement's Eastcheap, in the City of London, also claims to be the church from the rhyme. St Clement Danes is known as one of the two 'Island Churches', the other being St Mary-le-Strand.

  • St Clement Danes är en kyrka i City of Westminster i London. Den färdigställdes 1682 efter ritningar av Christopher Wren. Kyrkan, som är uppförd i barockstil, skadades svårt under blitzen i början av andra världskriget och hölls stängd för reparationer till år 1958. Idag fungerar den som kyrka för Storbritanniens flygvapen (Royal Air Force). Klockorna i St Clement Danes spelar vaggvisan Oranges and Lemons varje dag. Lyssna här! (sv)
