John Bonham's Grave at St Michael’s Church

Highlight • Religious Site

St Michael’s is a pretty church nestling in the Worcestershire countryside. This remote church is an important place of pilgrimage for Led Zeppelin fans as the band’s drummer, John Bonham, is buried within the grounds (you can’t miss his grave — it is always covered with drumsticks). The Grade II-listed church was built between 1756-58 on the site of a medieval church.
