Chapel

The fabric of the Chapel has stood virtually unchanged since it was consecrated by the Archbishop of York in 1719. It is one of Oxford’s most notable buildings.

The Chapel has a significant place in College life. Holy Communion is celebrated every Sunday morning and at other times and is open to all communicant members of any Christian church or denomination. The Sunday evening service takes the traditional form of Choral Evensong. Short services are held morning and evening, and at other times some like to use the stillness for their own prayer. Baptisms, confirmations and weddings are also conducted for members or former members of the College. The Chaplain’s duties are not confined to the conduct of services: he is available for consultation on any matter to all members of Queen’s and their friends. The religious life of the College is usually both lively and stimulating.
