The 10 Best Traveler Resources in Cambridgeshire, England

Come and see the fascinating library collection of Samuel Pepys at Magdalene College Cambridge. The library is housed in their original bookcases, or ‘book presses’ as Pepys called them, and the collection includes his original diaries. Upon entering the library, we will ask you to keep your bags in the library office. This is to ensure the safety and security of the bookcases. Please note that there are periodic closures of the library thoughtout the year; for dates of closure please see our website. Groups of over 10 people must book a group tour in advance, outside of the public opening hours. For further details please see our website. We regret that, due to the historic nature of the building, that there is no lift access to the library and that children under 6 years old cannot be admitted. We hope to improve our access and provision for children in the future as part of the College's 'Future Foundations' fundraising campaign.
