About Rhodes House
When Cecil Rhodes died, much of his fortune was left in trust. Trustees subsequently built Rhodes House to serve as both a memorial to Rhodes and a home for the Rhodes Trust.
One of the primary aims of the Trust has been to continually fulfil Rhodes’ intention to provide future leaders of the English-speaking world with an Oxford education that would broaden their views and develop their abilities. Read more about the history of Rhodes House.
