The Morton College is also very famous, built about five centuries ago, when the British judge decided to create an independent organization and foundation, which became the predecessor of the current Morton College.

    This is the most magnificent building in Oxford. Its square roof is unique. Morton College is known as "Oxford's most beautiful college". Most of the windows of its church were made hundreds of years ago. The most special one is the pattern of girls and children on the eastern window.

    The history of Oxford Morton College dates back to the 1960s, when Henry III, then British Chancellor of the Exchequer, and later Edward II drafted a charter for the establishment of an autonomous academic community, whose donations were awarded to prison directors and researchers. By the end of the 13th century, the halls, churches and courtyards were completed. Most buildings are Victorian, and the venue includes a real tennis court.

    Although it is not well-known in Oxford, it has the title of "Oxford's most beautiful college" and it is well-known to walk into the Institute and visit according to the prescribed routes. The church inside Morton College is tall and straight, and the dripping sculpture on the outside wall of the church is also very distinctive. Tall figure sculptures, standing under the eaves, such a layout is rarely seen. After entering the church, you can see that the interior of the church is more vulgar, with tall stained glass windows, old brass platform, brand-new silver organ, and more importantly, the whole church is not very quiet for tourists. In fact, there are not many visitors to Morton College. It's not like Christian Church College, the bustling Oxford University Library, or the hustle and bustle of people on the streets of Oxford. Under the background of flowers, lawns and trees, the classical and elegant college buildings are arranged in a neat and regular layout. Through the iron gate of the fence, we can see the view of the garden inside the college. It is not allowed for tourists to enter the area. We can only look at the garden in limited places. Walking through the courtyards of the college, we can see the similar buildings in different courtyards. On the wall of the student dormitory, we can see the picture of the 2016 championship of the club participating in the competition. There is a sculpture of twelve constellations on the top of a corridor in the college, which is an ancient twelve constellations, so many of the constellation signs we have never seen before. On the walls of the corridor are inscribed the list of alumni sacrificed by the Academy in the First and Second World Wars. It can be seen from the list that many people serve the Royal Air Force. According to the introduction, this college, founded in 1264, was the first one at Oxford University and also the one that enrolled secular students at that time.

    Morton College of Oxford University is one of the oldest colleges in Oxford University, not far from the Oxford University Library. This college has a strong science and engineering discipline. Churchill, the former British Prime Minister, graduated from this college. College environment is very beautiful, but you can buy tickets to go in and have a look.
