Religion, Art and War

Even before the Norman Conquest of 1066, Oxford was home to a rooted Christian, artistic and political community.

Since those days, a rich trail has been left in art, architecture and stories which tell of faith, social change, arts and the deep tensions that shape Oxford and Britain’s identity.

Tours include:

  • Oxford’s Stained Glass

  • The English Civil War

  • Nous avons eu une visite très intéressante d’une heure et demie focalisée sur les vitraux originaux qui ont été conservés à Oxford. Nous avons pu en apprendre davantage sur cet art, notamment la manière dont il était pratiqué, et les particularités de celui-ci à Oxford.

  • We spent 90 minutes focused on the original stained glass preserved in Oxford. We learnt about how it is practised and the particular story of stained glass in Oxford. Sophie is enthusiastic and knows how to communicate her passion for these beautiful works of art.

  • Sophie’s tour was a true highlight of my time in Oxford. We spent the day immersed in this fascinating town’s history, art, culture, I learned about many colleges comprising the university, their origins, traditions, and all the famous people who have left their mark on Oxford. Sophie truly made the heritage of Oxford come alive!

  • We had a great tour… especially when our guide realized we weren’t first time visitors to Oxford. She tailored it on a dime and we discovered new facts about Oxford and Christ Church. I highly recommend this tour regardless of if you have been there before. Cheers!
