St Piran and St Michael

Marazion church, across the bay from St Michael’s Mount, is perhaps best renowned for the hymn writer Henry Francis Lyte (1793-1847) who wrote ‘Praise my soul, the king of heaven’ and ‘Abide with me’.

Built in 1895 this chapel is a fine example of provincial, gothic style with fine stained glass windows throughout.

St Hilary church, with its historic links to St Michael’s Mount, has a rich and celebrated history from prehistoric times to the present day.
