    Our city’s key location on the Wye and the Welsh border has created a remarkable
    history, from its Saxon origins and Norman expansion, through the turbulence of the
    Middle Ages and the Civil War, Georgian and Victorian innovation to the present day.
    Highlighting historic buildings, famous people and events, our trained guides will give
    you a flavour of life in Hereford through the ages.
