Beautiful medieval church in the heart of Oxford. The admission ia free and it provides the perfect opportunity to enjoy a moment of peace and quiet when walking down High Street.
The Saxon Tower of St Michael’s is one of the oldest buildings in Oxford, dating back to the Saxon times. Originally built around 1000–1050, with the tower from 1040 still in existence. It worths a visit for its historical value and for a great view over the city of Oxford. There are 97 steps to the top of the tower. There are also some interesting things to view on the way up, so you can stop and rest a little bit...
The attraction here is the Saxon Tower, the oldest building in Oxford. The price to go in is very reasonable and considering the importance of the site, it was empty on a busy weekday. It was great having the whole tower to myself. At the top, there are great views of the dreaming spires of Oxford. At each level on the way down, there is different display, covering aspects of history, the mechanical works of a clock and some treasures among other things. Great!
Beautiful view of Oxford roofs and church. There is a charge of 3 to climb the tower
