The Abbey Church of Waltham Holy Cross and St Lawrence, also known as Waltham Abbey, is the parish church of the town of Waltham Abbey, Essex, England. It has been a place of worship since the 7th century. The present building dates mainly from the early 12th century and is an example of Norman architecture. To the east of the existing church are traces of an enormous eastward enlargement of the building, begun following the re-foundation of the abbey in 1177. In the Late Middle Ages, Waltham was one of the largest church buildings in England and a major site of pilgrimage; in 1540 it was the last religious community to be closed during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. It is still an active parish church for the town.

  • L'église de Waltham Abbey (anglais : Abbey Church of Waltham Holy Cross and St Lawrence) est l'église paroissiale de la ville de Waltham Abbey, située dans l'Essex, en Angleterre. Il s'agit d'un lieu de culte depuis le VIIe siècle. Le bâtiment actuel date principalement du début du XIIe siècle et est un bel exemple d'architecture normande. À l'est de l'église existante, on trouve des traces témoignant d'un énorme élargissement du bâtiment vers l'est, commencé après la refondation de l'abbaye en 1177. Au Moyen Âge tardif, Waltham était l'une des plus grandes églises d'Angleterre et un site majeur de pèlerinage; en 1540, ce fut la dernière communauté religieuse à être fermée lors de la dissolution des monastères. Il s'agit aujourd'hui encore d'une église paroissiale anglicane active pour la ville. Les bâtiments monastiques et les parties de l'église situées à l'est de la croisée du transept furent démolis lors de la dissolution, et la tour centrale normande ainsi que les transepts s'effondrèrent en 1553. L'église actuelle se compose de la nef de l'église abbatiale normande, de la (en) et du mur ouest du XIVe siècle, et de la tour ouest du XVIe siècle, ajoutée après la dissolution. Harold Godwinson est supposé être enterré dans le cimetière actuel. (fr)

It is still an active parish church for the town. The monastic buildings and those parts of the church east of the crossing were demolished at the Dissolution, and the Norman crossing tower and transepts collapsed in 1553. The present-day church consists of the nave of the Norman abbey church, the 14th-century lady chapel and west wall, and a 16th-century west tower, added after the dissolution. King Harold Godwinson, who died at the Battle of Hastings in 1066, is said to be buried in the present churchyard. (en)
