Cambridge Sacred Places

Cambridge, a place where theology, science, and philosophy have collided for over 800 years.

This fascinating tour will take you through Saxon, Norman, medieval, Victorian, and Reformation heritage, combining architecture, sacred history, and hidden tombstones of famous thinkers.

Learn how religion shaped the university, the fiery sermons that sparked the English Reformation, and how Puritanism took root. You will hear about reformers, heretics, saints, and geniuses who challenged dogma and shaped human understanding.

Each stop offers stories of the long trajectory through devotion, rebellion, and remembrance.
