Truro is a beautiful city, not only to live and work in, but also to visit. Its uniqueness lies very much in its history. In the 19th and 20th centuries Truro was a very busy port and prior to this a large mining and agricultural area. It attracted wealthy merchants and bankers who built fine houses, turning Truro into a fashionable place.

Today Truro is the centre of Cornwall for trade and commerce with an interesting mix of specialist shops and multinational stores.

We hope that this Visitor Information section will give you a taste of what Truro has to offer. Some pages are quite long - please feel free to print any of them out. If you need any further information, please contact Truro Tourist Information Centre.
