About Treasury:

The Winchester College Treasury houses the school’s collections of art and archaeology. These include artefacts from Egypt, Greece and Rome, casts of the Parthenon Frieze, and Chinese ceramics from the Han to Qing dynasties. They are displayed in the medieval Warden’s Stables, converted into a museum in 2016.

There is a comprehensive multimedia guide available and please ask the guide for a free Treasury Trail to entertain younger visitors. A guidebook of the collections is available to purchase.
