Famous for its university choir, considered one of the best in the world. The college was founded in 1511 by Margaret Beaufort, mother of Henry VII. The chapel housing the renowned choir was built in 1863. St John's is also proud to have produced 9 Nobel Prize winners, as well as six prime ministers, three archbishops, two princes... Quite an impressive list. Among them, the poet William Wordsworth and the mathematician Paul Dirac, one of the fathers of quantum mechanics. His Bridge of Sighs across the River Cam is also noteworthy.

Ah, St John... L'un des collèges mythiques de Cambridge, dont la visite est des plus plaisantes. J'ai moins été conquis par un bâtiment spécifique que par l'ensemble, majestueux.

Imposant collège de part sa taille, avec une imprésionnante chapelle. Se situe sur la même route que le King's College et Trinity College.
