About Durham City

Durham city's history can be traced back a thousand years to the arrival of a religious community seeking a permanent resting place for the body of Saint Cuthbert of Lindisfarne. They built a church as a shrine for their saint on top of a rocky hill. Following the Norman conquest of 1066, King William also found this site appealing and realised it offered an ideal strategic location from which to rule Northumbria and defend the region against the Scots. The community of Cuthbert gave way to Benedictine Monks and a Bishop. They began building the Cathedral to provide a monumental shrine for St Cuthbert and the Castle to act as protection for the Cathedral and to provide a palace for the Bishop. The panoramic view of Durham Cathedral and Castle has been described as 'one of the finest architectural experiences of Europe' and together they are now designated a World Heritage Site.

In the 19th century, the University was founded and Durham Castle became the first university college. Durham offers a wide range of facilities, shops, restaurants and markets.

Durham Racecourse backs on to the River Wear and is a favourite area for walks and the country's top athletics cross-country event is also a regular fixture attracting the best runners in the world. The stretch of river by the Racecourse is well known for the annual Durham Regatta.
