The University of Oxford Botanic Garden started as the Physic Gardens for the study of medicinal plants in 1621. It is located on the peaceful banks of the Cherwell River and is considered the oldest Botanic Garden in Britain. It is a home to inspiring herbaceous borders and glasshouses where the most compact and diverse collection of plants in the world are found. It is also open throughout the year for you to visit and enjoy.

Housed in a historic building, The Cinema Museum holds Spain’s first and most significant collection of cinematic history, thanks to the visionary Tomàs Mallol. Acquired by the city in 1994, his private collection forms the core of this public museum. It traces over 400 years of visual storytelling through 25,000 artefacts — from magic lanterns and zoetropes to early cameras and projectors — making it one of Europe’s most comprehensive archives on pre-cinema and early film. Beyond the permanent exhibition, the museum hosts temporary shows, educational workshops, and a specialised library. While some displays are labelled primarily in Catalan and Spanish, introductory materials are available in English, French and German.
