Trumpington Street

Trumpington Street is the main historic street of Cambridge, and is located in the heart of the city. It is home to St. Catherine’s College, the first Peterhouse College, and the University of Cambridge.

Located on historic Trumpington Street, you can not pass by the amazing building of the Fitzwilliam Museum, which is built in neoclassical style and decorated with two sculptures of lions. The Church of St. Mary, founded in 1478 under Henry VII, is also located on this historic street.

Near the junction of Pembroke Street, Millane and Trumpington stand the front gate of Pembroke College - Cambridge's oldest front gate. At another intersection you can see the famous plumbing Thomas Hobson. In a small square behind a low metal fence stands a building - a monument in honor of the water supply. This attraction is almost 400 years old.
