Visiting the College

New College welcomes visitors to tour our buildings and gardens.  As part of admission, you may be able to visit the Cloisters, Chapel, Hall, Gardens and City Wall. Access to all of these areas cannot be guaranteed as the College goes about its daily functioning.

Please remember that New College is a place of study all year round. You are asked to keep to the route indicated on the map, and large groups are encouraged to book in advance.
