The University of Lincoln is located in the heart of one of the world’s great historic cathedral cities with Lincoln Cathedral dominating the city at the top of Steep Hill and celebrated as one of the finest medieval landmarks in Europe. Together with Lincoln Castle and the cobbled Bailgate, it is a reminder of the city’s long and fascinating history.
With a long history of involvement with the film industry, the City of Lincoln has been used a number of times for the production of feature films such as Possession, The Young Victoria and The Da Vinci Code.
The University’s modern campus overlooks the café culture of the Brayford waterfront. The modern marina is filled with popular bars and restaurants and a cinema, while the city centre and uphill areas offer a more diverse and cultural scene.
Lincoln is one of the safest and friendliest cities in the UK with its main attractions within a short walk of the city centre. The combination of a vibrant atmosphere and warm community feel makes Lincoln a fantastic place to visit and study.
Magna Carta
Lincoln is also home to one of only four surviving copies of Magna Carta, dating back to 1215. In 2015, the city celebrated the 800th anniversary of this historic document in its new vault within Lincoln castle. www.magnacarta800th.com
