Sir Christopher Wren was buried in St Paul's Cathedral with the epitath: Underneath lies buried Christopher Wren, the builder of this church and city; who lived beyond the age of ninety years, not for himself, but for the public good.
In 1669 Charles II appointed Wren Surveyor General of the King's Works. As Surveyor General he supervised all work on the royal palaces. Wren was knighted in 1673. He is best known for the design of St Paul's Cathedral. Construction was completed in 33 years. The foundation stone was laid by master mason Thomas Strong on 21 June 1675 and the second foundation stone by master carpenter John Langland.
