Fodors describe Bath Abbey as being a "15th-century edifice of golden, glowing stone" which dominates the center of town and features "carved figures of angels ascending ladders" on both sides of its "splendid west front". Located "on the site of a Saxon abbey", the Abbey boasts "superb fan-vaulted ceilings" and inside has "an impression of lightness" due to there being "more than 50 stained-glass windows". Visitors are also able to enjoy "an audiovisual presentation of the abbey's history".
