Corpus Christi College, College in Cambridge, England

The medieval courtyards of Corpus Christi College contain undergraduate accommodations, two libraries, dining halls, and student facilities across two main locations in Cambridge.

Founded in 1352 by the Guild of Corpus Christi and the Guild of the Blessed Virgin Mary, this college stands as the only Cambridge institution created by local townspeople.

The Parker Library maintains a collection of medieval manuscripts while the Corpus Playroom offers a performance space for theatrical productions throughout the academic year.

Students receive guaranteed accommodation for their entire course duration, with access to two libraries, dining halls, sports grounds, and a gymnasium at the Leckhampton site.

The Old Court preserves original features from the 1350s, including wooden window sills that were once soaked in oil due to the absence of glass windows.
