“University Church of St Mary the Virgin serves the community with masses, prayers and other religious services. The church building is a splendid example of the 13th-century church architecture that Nicholas Stone designed. The church is in a calm and peaceful environment that attracts people from all over the community to attend the church's prayers, worship, and meetings. University Church of St Mary the Virgin is a colourful, egalitarian, and welcoming community where individuals can connect and understand the significance of glory and faith in God. The oldest part of the church is the tower, which dates back to the 1270s. The decorated spire, added in the early fourteenth century, is one of Oxford's best-known landmarks. The University Church serves as the intellectual heart of Britain's oldest university.”
