Summary: "Travels in England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth; with Fragmenta regalia" by Paul Hentzner is a historical account likely written in the early 17th century. The work chronicles the observations and experiences of Hentzner, a German lawyer and traveler, as he embarks on a journey through England during the notable Elizabethan era, providing insights into the society, culture, and notable figures of the time.

Additionally, Hentzner thoughtfully reflects on the architecture and the many famous individuals buried in London’s churches, providing a sense of the political and social landscape of Elizabethan England.
