ON THIS DAY
in
Cambridge
Anniversaries of the individuals that have made Cambridge’s worldwide reputation. From the arts, the humanities and the sciences, there are writers, thinkers, Nobel Prize winners, Fields and Copley medalists, comedians and sports personalities, politicians as well as the occasional spy. They’ve discovered and invented, explored and identified. They have created laws and subverted our societies.

The list changes daily (obviously) so please bookmark the page or sign up for our weekly lists.
