## About

Christ Church Cathedral has the unusual distinction of being simultaneously the cathedral of the Diocese of Oxford and the chapel of Christ Church, one of Oxford University's largest colleges. Founded originally as a priory in 1122 and refounded by Cardinal Wolsey in 1525, it is the smallest cathedral in England yet one of the most visited, set within one of the world's most beautiful college quadrangles. The building contains exceptional medieval and Victorian stained glass — including windows by Burne-Jones and the Lewis Carroll Memorial Window, commemorating the author of Alice in Wonderland who was a mathematics lecturer at Christ Church. Distinguished musicians including William Walton received their education here.
