Visitors will be able to stand in the same spot where King Charles is crowned this May – but only in their socks
The Cosmati pavement has been covered by carpet and kept hidden from members of the public for the last 150 years, but now members of the public will be able to take a tour of the Abbey where the king will be crowned on May 6.
Anyone eager to stand in the exact spot where Charles is crowned, however, will be asked to remove their shoes and instead walk in their socks while taking the tour – this is to protect the precious pavement, which is made of geometric patterns of marble, stone, glass and metal.
