King's was founded in 1441 by King Henry VI soon after he had founded its sister institution at Eton College. Initially, King's accepted only students from Eton College. However, the king's plans for King's College were disrupted by the Wars of the Roses and the resultant scarcity of funds, and then his eventual deposition.

King's College Chapel is regarded as one of the finest examples of late English Gothic architecture. It has the world's largest fan vaul ...
