Oxford and Empire Walking Tour
Tour info
Why take this tour?
This digital tour transports you to the streets of Oxford from the comfort and safety of your own home. The lovely stone of Oxford colleges come alive in this online experience as you are led by one of our student guides through an interactive map of the city. Each 'stop' will raise conversations about Oxford's imperial history, slave wealth, diversity, and historical memory. Participants will be asked to view the landscape of the city with a critical eye, while learning many of the hidden histories that lie beneath its cobblestones. Stable internet connection required. The tour will require Zoom.
