Oxford is a city of romantic spiers

The city is famous first of all by the university. And the role that he played in the history of England. This city was home to the royal family, as well as to scientists.


Oxford is a city of romantic spiers

The origin of the city is still controversial. John Roose, a historian who lived in the Middle Ages, in 1490 put forward the hypothesis that Oxford was built between 1400 and 1500. And the founder of the city was King Marcellus. However, historians-contemporaries Roosa denied his hypothesis and argued in favor of a popular legend, saying that Oxford counts down its history from 1100 when the Trajan landed on the shore, and they founded the city. The history of the university is also unknown.

According to one theory, the university was founded by the Saxon king Alfred the Great when he was the ruler of England. The city acquired the status of the academic center in the XIII century. Students from all European countries came to study there. There also studied Franciscans, Dominicans and Carmelites.

High Street, winding and long, is considered the most striking street in England. Walking along this street, go to the old student's pub to drink a cup of cider. From the tower of Magdalen, the sounds of Latin choral music will be descended, students on modern motorcycles, but dressed in accordance with tradition, dissect the air of the past centuries. This place is characterized by the solemnity of the towering spiers and towers, the kiosks in which books are sold.

The University of Oxford is not only a world-class research and education center. This is an additional 39 colleges in which the self-government system operates. In a world that speaks English, it's the oldest.

Arriving in Oxford, be sure to go to the botanical garden at the university. In Britain, this garden is the oldest, and plants in it were brought from all over the world. Do not ignore the colleges.

Founded in Oxford in 1683 the Eshmolin Museum is considered to be the oldest in Britain. Here you can see sculptures from antiquity times, paintings, admire the collection of precious stones.

Those who graduated from Oxford left a clear trail in history: Oscar Wilde, Roger Bacon, Lewis Carroll, Jonathan Swift, DRR Tolkien. Until 1920 women did not study here, but Margaret Thatcher graduated from one of his colleges.

Today Oxford is like London bustle, buses, crowds of hurrying people. But for all its modernity, the spirit of antiquity is still here preserved.
