Westminster Abbey has been lit up by hundreds of lights as part of a festival in London.
The facade of the building has been turned multi coloured as part of the Lumiere London displays.
The installation, The Light of the Spirit, has been designed by the French artist, Patrice Warrener.
He's lit more than 60 buildings around the world, and is known for his intricate, vibrant illuminations.
It's the first time that Westminster Abbey, a designated World Heritage Site and one of the UK's leading visitor attractions, has been lit in this way.
Light installations by 30 leading artists have appeared across the capital in King's Cross, Mayfair, Piccadilly and Westminster.
The Lumiere festival was started in Durham in 2009 where the festival takes place every two years.
It's free to visitors and runs until Sunday night.
A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
