550 years of rich and eventful history have left Magdalen with some of the most picturesque sights in Oxford, making it a must-see for the Oxford visitor. Yet the College is so much more than a mere collection of splendid buildings and inspiring gardens that have survived the test of time. It has been a place of study and inspiration for no fewer than nine Nobel prize winners and several other famous alumni, under the leadership of 42 presidents. The College remains a vibrant place that is constantly enriched by student and academic life, by its unique choral and musical tradition, and by the numerous societies and sporting activities of its members.
