Parking in York

Immersed in Roman and Jorvik heritage sites, the town of York is surrounded by stunning medieval architecture and draws in tourists from around the globe.

York began as a Roman fort founded in 71 CE between the Rivers Ouse and Foss, later growing into a prosperous settlement thanks to trade and craftsmanship. The Vikings took control centuries later, bringing farming, trade, engineering and shipbuilding that helped the city flourish for over a hundred years. York then developed into a thriving manufacturing centre. Modern attractions such as the National Railway Museum (opened 1975) and the Jorvik Viking Centre (opened 1984) celebrate its layered history.

Today, York’s landmarks highlight its rich heritage. Visitors explore the Jorvik Viking Centre, the National Railway Museum and York Chocolate Story for insights into the city’s past. The historic Shambles draws crowds with its centuries-old shops, while the stunning York Minster towers above the city as a masterpiece begun in 1220. For live entertainment, from music to theatre and even snooker, the York Barbican remains a popular venue.
