What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records The archbishop's palace as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The Archbishop's Palace was built in the 13th century as the residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury, reflecting the religious and administrative power of the church in medieval England. It is important as a well-preserved example of ecclesiastical architecture and as a symbol of the historical influence of the Church in the region.
