Cambridge, England: Gonville and Caius College: Gate of Honour top half (with sundials)

This unusual structure, resembling a ‘miniature triumphal arch’, was built around 1575 and represents one of the earliest examples of the Italian Renaissance style in England.

Above the arched entrance, 4 classical columns support a pediment topped by a stone hexagon, with a sundial on each face.

The Gate of Honour is one of three gates built at the same time whose positioning within Gonville and Caius College was intended to symbolize the students’ intellectual journey.
