St. Michael's Church was built in the mid-14th century, originally serving as the college chapel of Michaelhouse. Today, its parish is used to serve the community of Cambridge by providing an oasis of calm smack in the center of a bustling city. Much of the original decorated gothic design remains, and the church is now used for book sales and meetings. The Michaelhouse Centre also accommodates to catered events of all sizes providing freshly prepared on-premise foods.
