Durham Local Information

Durham’s prestigious University—England’s third oldest after Oxford and Cambridge—brings a rich cultural presence to the city. Highlights include the Oriental Museum, the only UK museum dedicated to Eastern art and antiques, and the Botanic Garden, home to remarkable plant species from around the world.

Sport also plays a key role in university life, especially rowing and cricket. The River Wear offers 1,800 metres of rowing space for Durham College Rowing, the Durham University Boat Club, and Durham Amateur Rowing Club, one of the oldest in the country.

Founded in the 11th century, Durham Castle remains one of Britain’s best-preserved Norman fortresses. Alongside it stands the magnificent Durham Cathedral, dating back to 1093. Durham has also produced notable figures such as comedian Rowan Atkinson and former Prime Minister Tony Blair, both alumni of the local Chorister School.
