About All Souls College
A unique college with no undergraduate students, only fellows elected for academic excellence. While not open to the public, the exterior on High Street and the magnificent Hawksmoor twin towers (1720s) visible from Radcliffe Square are among Oxford's most photographed features. The Codrington Library dome is equally impressive from outside.
Insider Tips
View the twin towers from the upper floor of the Bodleian Library or Radcliffe Camera tours for the best perspective.
