Real Estate Lancaster

Lancaster (lat. Lancastria) is a relatively small city standing by the river Lew, but rather just ten kilometers from where it flows into the Irish sea, but this city has a long and rich with the major historical events of history. Also Lancaster is the chief town of the County of Lancashire. For many fans of the history of Lancaster – primarily one of the most powerful houses in England, is an offshoot of the Royal house. True, this city was the center of the possessions of this noble family.

History of Lancaster begins at the end of the eleventh century. The first written mention dates back to 1086. Like many cities in the UK, Lancaster was founded on the spot where once stood the camp of the troops of the Roman Empire. However, the Norman conquest led to the fact that the host city was Roger Poitevin belonging to the house of Shrewsbury. It marked the beginning of the glorious history of the city, making it the centre of their own possessions. He also founded two major city buildings – Lancaster castle and Lancaster Priory. Official city status was assigned only in the year 1193, when the genus of Lancaster has made the city a kind of capital of their possessions. Until the end of the fourteenth century, the city successfully withstood the attacks from Scotland, and three times was unsuccessfully besieged during the English revolution. Later Lancaster became a large port, but it only lasted a century because of natural factors, made it impossible the passage of heavy vessels. At the moment, the city has a population of 46.000 people (according to the 2004 census).

However, over the years and centuries in which the city had significant political and economic importance both for the County and for England as a whole, Lancaster has acquired a huge number of cultural and historical monuments, many of which date to the era of the house of Lancaster, whose emblem was a lush red rose. Also, it should be noted that this city together with the name of the family to which he belonged, was included not only in the history of great Britain, but in the art world, in particular in literature. World fame got the name thanks to the novel “the Black arrow” by R. L. Stevenson, where so clearly and vividly described the struggle between two noble families, York and Lancaster for the throne.

In the UK there is a considerable number of striking buildings, which are only castles, Nay, even the ordinary houses in England, built in the unique English style. One of the most breathtaking buildings not only Lancaster, but England definitely is Lancaster castle. His story begins in the first century of our era, because this fortress was built on the spot where once stood the Roman Fort. The earliest buildings date back to the twelfth century, although in the future not just rebuilt. Castle replete with towers and battlements and still looks impregnable. The gate to the castle was built in the early fifteenth century. The fortress has a somewhat sinister aura, since a few hundred years the castle was used as a prison, including for those accused of witchcraft, and only in 2010 by the decree of the government of the prison it was decided to close, and in 2011 finally ceased to be a prison. This place is very popular with tourists, attracting thousands of visitors from all over the world.
