The Abbey Church of St Mary the Virgin, Tewkesbury–commonly known as Tewkesbury Abbey–is located in the English county of Gloucestershire. A former Benedictine monastery, it is now a parish church. Considered one of the finest examples of Norman architecture in Britain, it has the largest Romanesque crossing tower in Europe. Services have been high church but now include Parish Eucharist, choral Mass, and Evensong. These services are accompanied by one of the church's three organs and choirs. There is a ring of twelve bells, hung for change ringing.

  • L'abbazia di Tewkesbury, ufficialmente Chiesa Parrocchiale della Santa Vergine Maria (in inglese Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin), è un ex monastero benedettino dedicato alla Beata Vergine Maria e si trova a Tewkesbury nella contea inglese del Gloucestershire.

  • Аббатство Святой Девы Марии в Тьюксбери, известное как просто Аббатство Тьюксбери (англ. Tewkesbury Abbey) — в прошлом бенедиктинское аббатство в Глостершире (Англия), ставшее простой приходской церковью. Считается одним из лучших образцов нормандской архитектуры в Великобритании. Тьюксбери стало одним из центров христианского культа в VII веке, а в X веке здесь был основан монастырь. Нынешнее здание было построено в начале XII века. Аббатство безуспешно использовалось в качестве убежища во время Войн Алой и Белой розы, после роспуска монастырей в XVI веке оно стал приходской церковью города. В конце XIX века здание было отреставрировано. В церкви и на кладбище при ней погребены тела многих аристократов. (ru)

  • La abadía de Tewkesbury (en inglés, Tewkesbury Abbey) fue una antigua abadía inglesa de la orden de San Benito de fundación medieval, ubicada en la pequeña ciudad de Tewkesbury (condado de Gloucestershire). Fue disuelta en 1539 por Enrique VIII y luego parcialmente desmantelada, conservandose apenas la antigua iglesia abacial Santa María Virgen (en inglés, Abbey Church of St Mary the Virgin, Tewkesbury), comprada por los habitantes del pueblo por el precio del plomo de su techo para utilizarla como su iglesia parroquial,​ ahora parroquial de la Iglesia de Inglaterra, construida por los normandos en el siglo XII. Es uno de los mejores ejemplos de arquitectura normanda en Gran Bretaña, y tiene probablemente la torre románica de crucero más grande de Europa. (es)
