Harris Manchester College

2024 is the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings of World War II - why not come along and see where they were planned? Our College dining hall (Arlosh Hall) was the centre of operations for the planning of Operation Overlord as well as other WWII operations. There will be a display of photographs and other materials. Also open will be the Tate Library (with its glorious stained glass) and our small but perfectly formed gardens. Our Chapel, with its pre-Raphaelite stained glass windows by Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris, is due to undergo renovations from Autumn 2024 and may be open/partially open or closed (depending on works being carried out).
