Lamb and Flag Passage, Oxford *Original*

The Lamb & Flag Passage runs through the south side of the The Lamb & Flag pub on St Giles', Oxford, and connects St Giles' with Museum Road, where there is an entrance to Keble College to the rear of the pub.

The pub is owned by St John's College, and lies just north of the main entrance to the college. The name of the pub comes from the symbol of Christ as the victorious Lamb of God (Agnus Dei) of the Book of Revelation, carrying a banner with a cross, and often gashed in the side. This is also a symbol of St John the Baptist, and so is emblematic of ownership by the College of St John the Baptist.
