Westminster, located in London, has a rich history dating back over a thousand years. The area became significant in the 11th century when Westminster Abbey was founded in 1065, and it was later designated as the site for the English Parliament. The Palace of Westminster, which houses the UK Parliament, has been in use since the 13th century. Thus, Westminster has been a central part of British political and religious life for nearly a millennium.
