Your Visit
We are delighted to announce that the Chapel reopened to visitors once again on May 18th. Choral services will remain closed to members of the public until a later date. More information can be found below.
Among the Chapel's many facets you will see an exhibition of the history of the College, the world's largest fan vaulted ceiling and the Adoration of the Magi by Rubens. In addition, outside you will be able to view the wildflower meadow on the back lawn, which was established in 2020, as well as the Xu Zhimo stone in the memorial garden.
All visits are self guided, and you are welcome to walk at your leisure. We kindly ask that you respect the space of others during your visit.
Guided Tours are offered in partnership with certified Cambridge City Blue Badge Guides. To check when these are operating, and to book a tour, please take a look at the Visit Cambridge website.
