Holywell Music Room
An eighteenth-century purpose-built concert room on Holywell Street, experienced best at a recital or other ticketed event rather than on a routine walk past.
Holywell Music Room opens a musical strand of Oxford’s history: it began hosting public concerts in 1748 and still serves performances. Its visitor value is the room and the listening experience, so check an event programme before planning around it.
