The Reading Abbey was once a major religious site, but sadly after centuries of neglect only remnants of its former glory remain. Today the visitor will see several ruins which hint at the former magnificence of the chapel. Reading Abbey was established in 1121 by King Henry I and it was consecrated to the Virgin Mary and John the Evangelist.
