One of Oxford’s most photographed landmarks, the Bridge of Sighs is an architectural icon linking two parts of Hertford College across New College Lane. Officially known as Hertford Bridge, this elegant enclosed passerelle allows students and fellows to move between the college's historic buildings while adding a touch of Venetian-inspired grandeur to the city streets below.

Despite its famous nickname, the bridge has no connection to Venice’s original Bridge of Sighs beyond its appearance. Whether you're exploring Oxford for the first time or returning to admire its historic streets, it's a must-see landmark and one of the city's most recognisable photo spots.
