Map
The Queen’s College is one of Oxford University’s oldest colleges and was founded in 1341. The college was named in honour of Edward III’s wife, Philippa. In the 18th Century the Medieval college was rebuilt which made it the only college to be housed in Baroque buildings. The college’s Upper Library is considered to be one of the finest rooms in Oxford although the architect of the library, once believed to be Christopher Wren, remains a mystery.
