The Church of St Mary-le-Bow is a Church of England parish church in the City of London. Located on Cheapside, one of the city's oldest and most important thoroughfares, the church was founded in 1080 by Lanfranc, Archbishop of Canterbury. Rebuilt several times over the ensuing centuries, the present church is the work of Sir Christopher Wren, widely acknowledged to be one of his finest creations. With its tall spire, it is still a landmark in the City of London, being the third highest of any Wren church, surpassed only by nearby St Paul's Cathedral and St Bride's, Fleet Street. At a cost of over £15,000, it was also his second most expensive, again only surpassed by St Paul's Cathedral.

  • The Church of St Mary-le-Bow is a Church of England parish church in the City of London. Located on Cheapside, one of the city's oldest and most important thoroughfares, the church was founded in 1080 by Lanfranc, Archbishop of Canterbury. Rebuilt several times over the ensuing centuries, the present church is the work of Sir Christopher Wren, widely acknowledged to be one of his finest creations. With its tall spire, it is still a landmark in the City of London, being the third highest of any Wren church, surpassed only by nearby St Paul's Cathedral and St Bride's, Fleet Street. At a cost of over £15,000, it was also his second most expensive, again only surpassed by St Paul's Cathedral. St Mary-le-Bow is internationally famous for its bells, which also feature in the nursery rhyme 'Oranges and Lemons'. According to legend, Dick Whittington heard the bells calling him back to the city in 1392, leading him to become Lord Mayor. Today, anyone born within earshot of the bells is considered to be a true Londoner, or Cockney. The church suffered severe damage by the Luftwaffe in the Second World War as part of the Blitz, like many churches in London. The interior was reduced to a shell and though the tower survived, fire damage meant the bells crashed to the floor. The church was sympathetically restored to its pre-war condition by Laurence King from 1956 to 1964. The church was awarded Grade I listed status, the highest possible rating, on the National Heritage List for England, whilst still a shell in 1950. (en)
  • St Mary-le-Bow est une église ancienne de la City à Londres, dans la rue Cheapside. L'église est aussi connue pour ses cloches. Des fouilles archéologiques ont montré qu'une église existait à cet emplacement dès l'époque saxonne. L'église est détruite en 1091 par une très forte tornade et reconstruite. Sous les Normands, elle prend le nom de St Mary de Arcubus (St Mary of the Arches). Les cloches de l'église, nommées Bow bells, se font entendre très loin et l'église est la plus grande de l'agglomération après la cathédrale Saint-Paul de Londres. L’édifice est complètement détruit lors du grand incendie de Londres en 1666 et reconstruit par Christopher Wren, entre 1671 et 1673, avec un clocher rajouté en 1680. Le maître d’œuvre est Thomas Cartwright, un des entrepreneurs les plus en vue de l’époque. Étymologiquement, un cockney (ou Bow-bell cockney) est défini comme une personne née à un endroit d'où on peut entendre sonner les cloches de l'église. C'est cette distance qui définissait les limites de la ville. L'église et ses cloches sont en grande partie détruites lors d'un bombardement allemand le 10 mai 1941. La restauration du bâtiment a lieu à partir de 1956. Les cloches sont livrées en 1956 et sonnent de nouveau à partir de 1961. Le 4 janvier 1958, l'église est devenue monument classé de grade I . L'église est de nouveau consacrée en 1964. (fr)

  • St Mary-le-Bow är en historisk kyrka i City of London. Kyrkan är känd sedan 1000-talet. Kyrkans namn – bow eller arches på engelska, arcubus på latin – anspelar på den medeltida kyrkans krypta, som hade höga valvbågar väl synliga från gatan. (sv)
  • Сент-Мэри-ле-Боу (англ. St Mary-le-Bow) — одна из самых известных церквей Лондона; находится в Сити. Построена в 1671—1680 годах Кристофером Реном на месте сгоревшей прежней церкви. Слово «Боу» в названии (от англ. bow — арка) возникло от того, что церковь была построена над нормандской подземной часовней с каменным арочным сводом. Считается, что человек, родившийся в пределах слышимости колоколов Сент-Мэри-ле-Боу, — истинный кокни. 10 мая 1941 года в церковь попала бомба, сброшенная немецким самолётом, в результате большая часть здания церкви была разрушена, а колокола разбились о землю. В 1956 году началась реставрация церкви под руководством Л. Кинга (L. King) и уже в 1961 году колокола церкви зазвучали вновь, порождая новое поколение кокни. В этой церкви похоронен российский посланник Семён Воронцов, отец князя Михаила Воронцова и дед британского военного министра Сидни Герберта. (ru)
