Chester Visitor Information Centres - just follow the 'i'

Chester has an extremely rich and interesting past with a long military history, starting with the Romans. It then went on to become an important Saxon town.

It was still a major military strong hold by the time of the Civil War in the 17th Century. Chester has also always had a strong commercial life. It had a major network of guilds, with many skilled tradesmen, and for a long period of time Chester was one of the most important seaports in the country!

Thankfully, there is a lot of it's history still on show. The City of Chester has the most complete set of City Walls and the largest uncovered Roman amphitheatre in the country. The buildings have retained their unique character with some of the oldest shop frontages in the world.
