 College of research fellows |
High Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 4AL United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9379 http://www.all-souls.ox.ac.uk/ |
Founded in 1438 by Archbishop Chichele of Canterbury as a memorial to those who died in the 100 Years War with France, its full name is The College of All Souls of the Faithful Departed. This unique college takes neither undergraduate nor graduate students, only Research Fellows. The imposing twin towers (designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor) and Christopher Wren's sundial are features of the Great Quad which was completed in 1733. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Britain's oldest public museum |
Beaumont Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 2PH United Kingdom +44 1865 27 8000 http://www.ashmol.ox.ac.uk/ |
Take a step away from the hustle and bustle of the city and savour the wonderful collections inside Britain's oldest public museum. John Tradescant's collection of archaeological rarities (both man-made and natural) originally opened to the public in South London in the early 17th century, for a charge of 6d (2.5p). The collection was inherited by Elias Ashmole and the Ashmolean opened in 1683. If you only have time to enjoy the antiquities galleries, with their exhibits dating from Paleolithic to Victorian times, your visit will have been worthwhile. You'll probably have to come back again if you also want to take in the collections of eastern and western art and the Heberden Coin Room. If time is very limited, try joining one of the lunchtime talks, which are always interesting and accessible. Admission: Free. Review © 2007, Wcities |

One of the oldest colleges |
Broad Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3BJ United Kingdom +44 1865 27 7777 http://www.balliol.ox.ac.uk/ |
Balliol is one of three colleges in Oxford (the other two are Merton and University) which claim to be the oldest. It's certainly true that members have lived communally on this site since 1263. Unfortunately, little remains of the ancient buildings, but a relaxing walk through the college will enable you to admire the unpretentious architecture of today. Balliol's other claim to fame is that it has produced more politicians and statesmen than any other Oxford college. Former students include Aldous Huxley, Edward Heath and Graham Greene.

 Inspirational Gardens |
High Street Oxford OX1 4AX United Kingdom +44 1865 27 6920 http://www.botanic-garden.ox.a... |
Founded in 1621 it orgininally provided medicinal herbs. Today, the Botanic Garden has evolved into a collection of over 8,000 plants in a compact, beautifully laid out setting accurately reflecting the appearance of a Tudor or Stuart college garden. It can easily be missed, tucked away close to the edge of the central district, but is well worth the extra few hundred yards' walk to the end of High Street. Closed on Christmas Day and Good Friday.

Radcliffe Square Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 4AJ United Kingdom +44 1865 27 7823 http://www.bnc.ox.ac.uk/ |
Brasenose is one of the oldest and most central of the Oxford colleges. It enjoys a unique position overlooking the beautiful architecture of Radcliffe Square, and its own buildings are of just as high a standard. The Tudor-style Old Quad, with its 18th-century sundial, is the most many visitors see as they glance in from the street. The more adventurous can visit the attractive chapel and library. The Dining Hall is usually open so you can also see the ancient "brazen nose" door-knocker from which the college gets its name. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Hertford College link |

Although the building of this bridge was originally strongly opposed by New College, it has become a much admired architectural feature of the city and, despite being almost hidden in a side street, is one of the most frequently photographed and well-known landmarks in Oxford. Built in 1913-14 and named after the Ponte dei Sospiri in Venice, it links the two buildings that make up Hertford College. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Part of Bodleian Library |
Bodleian Library Broad Street Oxford OX1 3BG United Kingdom +44 1865 27 7180 (Library) http://www.bodley.ox.ac.uk/ |
This is one of a number of grand and architecturally important buildings at the eastern end of Broad Street. The Clarendon was designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor (a pupil of Wren), and built in 1712 by the Oxford University Press for their printing works which had outgrown previous premises in the Sheldonian Theatre. Now it's part of the Bodleian Library, while the Press is in modern buildings a mile away. However, a felicitous reminder of its former activities is the 'Clarendon Press' imprint which can be found on all OUP books. Please note that this building is not open to the public.

Founded in 1512 by Bishop Foxe of Winchester, this is one of the smallest Oxford colleges. Foxe was blind, so after the college had been built he was guided round the front quadrangle three times in order to trick him into thinking it was much bigger than it really was. In the middle of the attractive, paved front quadrangle is Turnbull's sundial (built in 1579-83), which is actually 27 sundials topped with the founder's emblem - a pelican representing the Body of Christ (Corpus Christi).

Earliest university building |
Catte Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3BW United Kingdom |
This is the oldest university - as opposed to college - building in Oxford. It is also one of the most imposing and one of the most easily missed by the unsuspecting visitor. It is entered via Old Schools Quad through the door behind the statue of the Earl of Pembroke. It was built in 1420-1483 and the initials or coats of arms of those who contributed to the cost are carved on the bosses of the magnificent ceiling. Initially, the building was used for Divinity lectures and examinations but it now forms part of the Bodleian Library. It also houses a chair made from the timbers of Sir Francis Drake's ship - the Golden Hinde - when it was broken up. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Sends a shiver down the spine of undergraduates |
75-81 High Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 4GB United Kingdom +44 1865 27 6903 http://www.admin.ox.ac.uk/scho... |
If you're in Oxford in June, there's a fair chance that you might see pale students entering the Examination Schools in the morning, or others celebrating the end of their exams later in the day. However, in addition to hosting examinations, the building is frequently used for lectures and conferences and, during both World Wars, it was converted into a hospital. It also houses the university's portrait gallery. Notice the two sculptured panels over the main entrance showing a viva voce examination and the award - by touching the successful candidate's forehead with a Bible - of an MA degree, and then walk round the corner into Merton Street to get the best view of the three-sided quad. Please note that this building is not normally open to the public. Review © 2007, Wcities |

College with medieval gatehouse |

Today, Exeter is best known for two of its former undergraduates: the writer J R R Tolkein, and Roger Bannister, who became the first person to run a mile in less than four minutes in 1954. In fact, the history of the college goes back much further, to the early 14th century. Founded by the Bishop of Exeter in 1314, the college was mostly rebuilt in the 17th century, but you can still see the medieval gatehouse, Palmer's tower. Review © 2007, Wcities |

From 1581 until 1871, religious non-conformists were barred from studying at Oxford. Manchester College (founded in Manchester in 1786 on the principle of religious liberty) however, provided higher education for those excluded from Oxford on religious grounds. The college finally moved to Oxford in 1889. It is housed in attractive buildings in Mansfield Road, and students wishing to live in college accommodation could hardly be more fortunate - many of them have lodgings in the beautiful 17th-century houses that line nearby Holywell Street.

College dating from the 13th century |
Catte Street Oxford OX1 3BW United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9400 http://www.hertford.ox.ac.uk/m... |
Hertford College is one of the most photographed colleges in Oxford. The buildings themselves aren't particularly grand, but linking two of them is the pretty Bridge of Sighs which features on many an Oxford postcard. The bridge dates from 1913, and most of the college isn't much older than this. In its early days, Hertford had to fight for its existence against the expansionist plans of its neighbour Magdalen Hall. It was only when Magdalen was almost completely destroyed by fire in 1820 that Hertford's future was assured. Since then it has developed a reputation as one of the friendliest colleges in the university. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Sixteenth-century college |
Turl Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3DW United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9700 http://www.jesus.ox.ac.uk |
Jesus is the largest of a cluster of colleges on and around Turl Street. It distinguishes itself from the rest of the university by being known as the 'Welsh college'. It owes this nickname to the fact that it was founded in 1571 by Hugh Price, (Treasurer of St David's Cathedral in Wales), and for centuries it gave preference to candidates from Wales. T E Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) was a student here - there is a bust of him in the college chapel. On 1st March every year, a Welsh service is held in the chapel to mark St David's Day.

Turl Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3DR United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9800 http://www.lincoln.ox.ac.uk/ |
This college was founded in 1427 by Richard Fleming, Bishop of Lincoln, and built on the site of St Mildred's church, graveyard and surrounding tenement houses - all of which were pulled down to make way for it. It had a precarious financial existence in its early years but new statutes in 1479 and further benefactions in the 15th and 16th centuries eased the situation. Notable Fellows of the college include John Wesley (the evangelist who founded Methodism), Lord Florey who developed penicillin and the philosopher Samuel Alexandre - one of the first Jews to be elected to an Oxford fellowship. Visiting groups must not exceed a maximum of five people. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Magdalen's impressive bell tower on High Street has become a landmark in the city. The 144 foot high tower was used as an observation post during the Civil War. Nowadays, every May Day morning the Magdalen College School Choir welcomes summer by singing from the top of the tower whilst several thousand people make merry in the street below. The college is also one of the most spacious in Oxford, with 100 acres of grounds, more than a mile of riverside walks and its own herd of deer. Admission is £3.00 for adults, £2.00 for concessions.

Built in 1870, Oxford Castle, originally known as Oxford Prison, ran as one until its closure in 1996. As the building stands now, you'll be wishing for incarceration here. The underground cells now sport a lush brasserie, and each room occupies the space of three cells - original door and bars included. The cots are now queen-sized beds, and some rooms have baths large enough to float in. The breakfasts are European Continental. Each room comes with its own hi-res flatscreen television.

Mansfield is the youngest and smallest of the Oxford colleges. Originally a theological college based in Birmingham, Mansfield moved to Oxford in 1886. The college buildings which date from that time are the work of the Victorian architect Basil Champneys.

Marking the darker side of Oxford's past |
St Giles Corner of Magdalen Street & Beaumont Street Oxford, Oxford OX1 3AE United Kingdom |
For years, students have attempted to persuade visitors to Oxford that this spire-shaped memorial at the south end of St Giles is the tip of an underground cathedral. In fact, it commemorates a sombre event: the burning at the stake of three martyrs in Oxford during the reign of Queen Mary. Bishops Latimer and Ridley were martyred in 1555 and Archbishop Cranmer in 1556. In the 19th century, a public appeal was launched, resulting in this memorial which was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott and built in 1843. Cranmer (holding his Bible) faces north, Latimer (with head bowed and arms crossed) faces west and Ridley faces east. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Founded in 1966 and now housed in a converted warehouse, this museum specializes in 20th-century art. Permanent displays of paintings and drawings are complemented by regular temporary exhibitions of modern sculpture, photography, paintings, printing, ceramics and textiles. Don't be put off by the building's characterless exterior. In fact once inside, you'll probably find that the stark white walls are the perfect setting for the exhibits. MOMA also has a comprehensive programme of lectures, concerts and films. The shop, which is full of mainly art-related books, artwork, posters and other goodies, is a great place to buy gifts.

It's impossible to visit Oxford, with its ancient university and fine architecture, without stepping into the past. This museum helps to put what you see today into context. Exhibits range from explanatory maps and drawings to reconstructions of entire rooms including an Elizabethan parlour, an 18th-century student's room and a Victorian kitchen. All major periods in the city's development are covered, with special emphasis on the Saxon and Norman periods, the development of the university, the Tudor and Stuart periods (including the Reformation and the Civil War), and the final emergence of Oxford as a modern city. There are also frequent temporary exhibitions. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Holywell Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3BN United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9555 http://www.new.ox.ac.uk/ |
Head for the spot where New College Lane meets Queen's Lane, enter through the narrow gate tower, and you'll find a college much more extensive and spacious than you'd have imagined. This was the seventh Oxford college to be founded (in 1379) and the first to admit undergraduates. New College boasts of an ancient city wall, as well as the impressive great quadrangle, with buildings dating from the 15th century. The college chapel has a window painted by Thomas Jervais in the late 18th century. The style of the nativity scene caused great controversy at the time, not least because the artist incorporated society figures of the day into the painting, including for instance, the wife of the poet Sheridan as the Virgin Mary.

Focus on social studies |
New Road Oxford University Campus Oxford, Oxforshire OX1 1NF United Kingdom |
When William Morris (Viscount Nuffield) - the man who introduced car manufacturing to Oxford - bought the old canal wharf, he offered to build a college on part of the land to improve the visual approach to the west side of the city. Although the college was founded in 1937, building work was delayed and cut back due to World War II and its aftermath, resulting in the 160 foot tower becoming a library rather than the chapel tower. The college specializes in social studies, and aims to provide a link between industry and academia. Review © 2007, Wcities |

17th-century lecture area |
Catte Street Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3BW United Kingdom |
Schools in this context means teaching rooms - the quad was built in 1613-24 to bring together the lecture rooms, which were, until then, dispersed, throughout the city. Teaching was in Latin and over the doors, the early 17th-century curriculum has been written out - in Latin of course! The statue is of the Third Earl of Pembroke, Chancellor of the University when the quad was built and the man to whom Shakespeare dedicated his first folio. Schools Quad is now part of the Bodleian Library. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Grandest quad in Oxford |
Oriel Square Oxford University Campus Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 4EW United Kingdom +44 1865 27 6555 http://www.oriel.ox.ac.uk/ |
Oriel got its name from La Oriole - a house which stood on the site of the present front quadrangle. This quadrangle, restored in the 17th century, is one of the grandest in Oxford, and is dominated by the stepped entrance to the Hall, with intricate stonework and statues of Charles I and Edward II above. Alumni of Oriel include Sir Walter Raleigh and Cecil Rhodes. Review © 2007, Wcities |

One of the world's leading universities |
University Offices Wellington Square Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 2JD United Kingdom +44 1865 27 0001 http://www.ox.ac.uk/ |
Many visitors to Oxford ask for directions 'to the university' but Oxford is not a campus university and it can't be visited in that sense. The university consists of 39 completely separate, autonomous colleges, which are spread throughout the city. Students belong to and live in the colleges, which are the focus of their academic and social life. The university is responsible for centralised functions, such as the major laboratories and computing facilities. The university also sets the syllabus and the examinations for all students from every college. The buildings to be seen and visited in Oxford are both university and college buildings.

College with magnificent hammerbeam roof |
Pembroke Street Oxford University Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 1DW United Kingdom +44 1865 27 6444 http://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/ |
Pembroke College was founded by James I in 1624 and a statue of the founder stands in the tower in Chapel Quad. The Hall, with its magnificent hammerbeam roof, dates from the 19th century and has a wonderful collection of portraits by former students who subsequently achieved fame in various fields. The college chapel dates from 1732 and the stained glass, which was completed in 1900, is by Charles Kempe, also a former student. Visits are made by arrangement. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Fine classical architecture |
High Street Oxford University Campus Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 4AW United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9120 http://www.queens.ox.ac.uk/ |
Queen's is probably the finest example of classical architecture in Oxford. The college was founded in 1340, but the original buildings have gone, and a rebuilding programme in the 17th and 18th centuries resulted in the quadrangles we see today. The architecture of the front quadrangle is particularly noteworthy, and was heavily influenced by the architect Nicholas Hawksmoor. The screen wall that fronts the High Street also owes much to Hawksmoor, though it is attributed to a local Oxford mason William Townesend. This college is only open to the public on official city tours. Review © 2007, Wcities |

One of the city's most beautiful buildings |
Radcliffe Square Oxford OX1 4AJ United Kingdom http://www.bodley.ox.ac.uk/ |
Turn the corner into Radcliffe Square and you'll see why the Camera is one of the most admired buildings in Oxford. This was the first round library to be built in Britain by John Radcliffe, who studied at Oxford and left much of his wealth and all of his medical books to the university. Building work started in 1737, and in 1860 it became part of the Bodleian Library. It is now used as reading rooms and is not open to the public, but the exterior view is more than enough to make this building worth visiting. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Ceremonies and concerts |
Broad Street Oxford OX1 3AZ United Kingdom +44 1865 27 7299 http://www.sheldon.ox.ac.uk/ |
Round buildings usually stand out from the surrounding architecture, and the Sheldonian is no exception. Visitors can't help but wonder what goes on inside, not least because the 'Emperors' heads' on the wall on Broad Street give the place such an imposing air. Primarily, the Sheldonian is a university building, used for major meetings and ceremonies. At other times, it is used as a concert venue. The theatre is an excellent setting, particularly for classical recitals, although the tiered seating can be slightly uncomfortable. This is a historically important building as it was the first major one to be designed by Sir Christopher Wren, who at the time was only 31 and a professor of astronomy. The design is based on the Marcellus Theatre in Rome and the theatre is named after Archbishop Sheldon (University Chancellor and Archbishop of Canterbury) who paid for its construction. Opening hours are irregular, depending on ceremonies, concerts and rehearsals. Review © 2007, Wcities |

"Teddy Hall" |
Queen's Lane Oxford Univeristy Campus Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 4AR United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9000 http://www.seh.ox.ac.uk |
This college is named after St Edmund of Abingdon, who in the 1190s taught in a house on this site. Known as Teddy Hall and founded in 1238, it was the last surviving medieval hall, and retained the title till 1957 when it gained full college status. Teddy Hall has the smallest front quadrangle in Oxford, despite the fact that it is one of the biggest colleges in the university, in terms of the number of dons and students. Nowadays though, you're almost as likely to see delegates walking through the college as you are to find students, since this is one of the most popular conference venues in town. Open during daylight hours (except mornings) in Trinity term. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Beautiful gardens |
St Giles Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3JP United Kingdom +44 1865 27 7300 http://www.sjc.ox.ac.uk/ |
St John's isn't on the main tourist trail of colleges, but it has some outstanding features that make it well worth visiting. Founded in 1437 as St Bernard's (a college for Cistercian students), it was dissolved in 1539 and became St John's 16 years later under the patronage of merchant tailor Sir Thomas White. St John's remained a single-sex college until women were admitted in 1979. The peaceful atmosphere of Canterbury Quad, with its impressive classical architecture, is the ideal setting for the gates through to the college gardens. Designed by Capability Brown in the 18th century, they are perhaps the finest to be found in any Oxford college. Review © 2007, Wcities |

University church |
High Street Oxford OX1 4AH United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9111 http://www.university-church.o... |
Although mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, the oldest parts of the church we now see are the 13th-century tower and 14th-century spire. Until specialised university buildings were available, St Mary's was used for university meetings, examinations and ceremonies. In fact, the flat-roofed extension which is now a cafe was once the university parliament building. It was in this church that Archbishop Cranmer was tried for heresy in 1555; where John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, preached his famous 1774 sermon; and where John Keeble delivered his Assize sermon (in 1833) which became the catalyst for the Oxford Movement.

Saxon tower |
Cornmarket Street Oxford OX13EY United Kingdom +44 1865 24 0940 |
Dating from about 1040, this is Oxford's oldest building. It is situated in the middle of the shopping area and is passed every day by thousands of people who scarcely give it a glance. Built during the late Saxon period, the two towers of the original north gate were later connected by the Bocardo prison which held the three martyrs (see Martyrs' Memorial) before they were burned at the stake. Their cell door is in the tower, as are a page from a 1437 set of churchwardens' accounts, some fine examples of church silver (including a 1562 chalice), and the great seal of King James I.

St Peter's stands at the eastern boundary of the medieval city. The college itself was founded in 1929, making it one of the universities, 'younger' colleges, but some of its buildings are much older. The church of St Peter-le-Bailey, designed by Basil Champneys in the late 19th century) is now the college chapel - there has been a church on the site for 900 years.

Fine neo-Jacobean building |
St Aldates Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 1BX United Kingdom +44 1865 25 2195 http://www.oxford.gov.uk/touri... |
The weather vane on the roof of the grand, neo-Jacobean town hall is a reminder of the city's distant past, when it was called Oxenford. Opened by the Prince of Wales (later Edward VII) in 1897, the building originally housed a library and law courts. When both eventually required larger premises, the Museum of Oxford moved into the space left vacant by the library and the law rooms became meeting rooms. Today, the town hall is used for local government meetings, and also as a conference venue. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Trinity College |
Broad Street Oxford OX1 3BH United Kingdom +44 1865 27 9900 http://www.trinity.ox.ac.uk/ |
While walking along Parks Road, pause at the large wrought iron gates set in the wall on the west side of the street, and you will not fail to be impressed by the grandeur of Trinity College gardens. Do not, however, be tempted to look for a college entrance of equal stature. Enter Trinity through a narrow gate, squashed between the houses of Broad Street, to see the baroque chapel, the Garden Quad (originally designed in part by Christopher Wren) and the rest of the fine gardens.

Jacobean-style college |
Parks Road Oxford University Campus Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 3PN United Kingdom +44 1865 27 7900 http://www.wadham.ox.ac.uk/ |
When Nicholas Wadham died in 1609, his will included the provision of a new college in Oxford. His widow Dorothy carried out his plan to such good effect that Wadham was founded in 1612, only three years after her husband's death. It was so well designed and laid out in the Oxford-Jacobean style that no major modifications have been necessary. The original statutes prevented the Warden (head of the college) from marrying and it required a special act of Parliament nearly 200 years later in 1806 to change them. During holidays, the college is only open from 10a-11:30a, daily. Review © 2007, Wcities |

College with attractive lake |
Worcester Street Oxford University Campus Oxford, Oxfordshire OX1 2HB United Kingdom +44 1865 27 8300 http://www.worc.ox.ac.uk/ |
Worcester's location is nowadays regarded as central, but it was once considered so isolated that the college was referred to as Botany Bay. The benefit of being on the edge of central Oxford is that Worcester has extensive grounds. The grounds extend to 26 acres and include a beautiful lake - unsurprisingly, they are one of the main attractions for visitors to the college. Worcester is also of considerable architectural interest, with a pleasing mix of neo-classical and medieval buildings. The latter are a reminder of the college's beginnings as a Benedictine college in the 13th century. Visits by appointment only: no groups. Review © 2007, Wcities |
