Magdalen College is built on the site of the former hospital of St John the Baptist and his feast day is celebrated each year with a sermon from the outdoor pulpit situated in St John’s Quad. Nowadays it’s on a Sunday near to the Feast Day of 24th June and as it’s a public sermon, all are welcome to attend. It’s a late fifteenth century stone structure of a type once common but now rarely found in the UK.

Helpful Hints

The pulpit is situated in the south-east corner of the quadrangle.

In 2024 it was on Sunday 16th June, 10am- 2025 details are yet to be announced.
