Building

The college was founded in 1341 by Robert de Eglesfield, a Chaplain to Queen Philippa. The medieval college was rebuilt in the early 1700s so that by 1730 Queens was the only Oxford college to be housed entirely in Baroque buildings. The Front Quad has been called 'the grandest piece of classical architecture in Oxford'. The Chapel was consecrated in 1719.
