Nottingham is known as “The Queen of the Midlands” due to its women, however, it also has a rich history of rebellion!

Nottingham’s history mirrors England’s history of Empire, rebellion and industry and this is reflected in the many iconic buildings and memorials in the city, covering nearly 2,000 years of history. Discover how it became a world trade hub through its lace industry, which gave this city its nickname at the height of the British Empire in the 19th century: City of World Lace Manufacture.
