The primary assembly location of Oxford University. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Gilbert Sheldon, paid for the building’s construction (1664-1669), so it was given his name upon completion. The architect behind the building’s design is named Sir Christopher Wren, who was at the time the University’s Professor of Astronomy. At the time of this publication, the building was 184 years old.
