| Description | Free admission to see the Divinity School, Convocation House and Chancellor's Court. No need to book. Come and see the 15th century Divinity School, the University’s oldest teaching and examination room. Take a seat on a bench and marvel at the beautiful carved stone ceiling in this masterpiece of English Gothic architecture. Explore Convocation House, built in the 17th century as a meeting place for the University's supreme legislative body, where Parliament was held during the Civil War. Don’t forget to look in the adjoining Chancellor’s Court, formerly used as Oxford University’s Court. We regret there is no access to the Library's Reading Rooms (rooms with books) during Oxford Open Doors. There will be a small display in the Proscholium on the theme of the Olympics as part of the Bodleian Library’s celebration of Open Doors.
