About Christ Church Picture Gallery
One of England's best-kept secrets, this small gallery accessible via Oriel Square holds over 200 Old Master works including paintings and drawings by Tintoretto, Veronese, and Leonardo da Vinci. The collection was amassed by Christ Church alumni and donors over centuries. At GBP 5, it offers exceptional value for Renaissance art enthusiasts.
Insider Tips
Entry is separate from Christ Church College itself, and the gallery is much quieter than the main college, making it perfect for contemplative viewing.
