Wrexham tourist information
Wrexham is the largest town in North Wales, with an interesting industrial history.
This market town is a hub for the local area and has a great range of shops. The Eagles Meadow Shopping Centre is the latest development, and there are good pubs, restaurants and cafes. The town is known for its thriving live music scene, helped by the presence of Glyndwr University. The town also hosts Yale College of Wrexham, the famous benefactor of the American University who lived and died in Wrexham.
Wrexham was also one of the birthplaces of the industrial revolution. In the 18th century John 'Iron Mad Jack' Wilkinson operated his pioneering ironworks in nearby Bersham, now a heritage centre. You can more about local history in Wrexham museum and other restored industrial buildings.
