Wrexham is a spirited city in north-east Wales, tucked between the Welsh hills and the English border. It's the largest city in North Wales, and while it's long been known as a market and mining town, these days it's shaking off the old labels and leaning into a new chapter. There's a proud working-class heart to Wrexham, but it's also buzzing with fresh energy—thanks in part to its growing reputation in sport, arts and education. Whether you're heading into town for the football, shopping, or a pint in a proper pub, there's plenty to like.

Wrexham has been around for centuries, with evidence of settlement dating back to prehistoric times. It grew steadily during the medieval period, becoming a market town and centre for leather, brewing and agriculture. Then came the Industrial Revolution, which brought coal mining, ironworks and brickmaking, turning it into an economic hub. The town continued to evolve through the 20th century, and in 2022, it was officially granted city status as part of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations. Today, Wrexham's population stands at around 44,000, and it's the kind of place where past and present still sit comfortably side by side.

There's no shortage of things to do in and around the city. Wrexham AFC has put the place firmly on the global map thanks to its Hollywood ownership, and a trip to the Racecourse Ground is a must for football fans. Ty Pawb, a mix of gallery, market and cultural space, has become a bit of a creative hub. The gothic St Giles' Church dominates the skyline, while Wrexham Museum gives a solid introduction to the area's story. On the edge of town, Erddig Hall, run by the National Trust, is a real treasure—an 18th-century mansion set in lovely formal gardens. Then there's Chirk Castle just down the road, a proper medieval fortress with sweeping views and sprawling grounds, managed by the National Trust as well. For a quieter wander, the National Trust's Bersham Ironworks tells the tale of the area's industrial muscle.

Beyond the city, the wider Clwyd area offers a stunning mix of coast, hills and heritage. Head west and you'll hit the Clwydian Range, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty packed with walking trails and Iron Age hillforts. Llangollen is a short drive away, famous for its steam railway, aqueduct and the annual Eisteddfod. To the north, Ruthin is full of charm, with a castle-turned-hotel, narrow streets and independent shops. Over in Denbigh, you've got ancient walls and dramatic ruins, and if you fancy the seaside, Rhyl and Prestatyn are both within reach for a day by the sea. Between the rolling farmland and market towns, there's a lot to explore without needing to go far.

Getting to Wrexham is straightforward and well served by road and rail. The A483 links the city to Chester and the wider motorway network, making access from the north-west of England quick and easy. There are two railway stations—Wrexham General and Wrexham Central—offering direct trains to Chester, Shrewsbury, Birmingham and beyond. Buses cover the city and nearby towns, and the roads in and out are decent, especially for heading into rural parts of Clwyd. For air travel, Liverpool John Lennon and Manchester Airport are both just over an hour's drive away. Once you're here, the city centre is walkable, and it's easy to get around on foot or by bike.

Clwyd as a historic county stretches across some of the most varied landscapes in Wales, from coastal resorts and farmland to rugged hills and historic towns. Though it's now divided into several unitary authorities—Wrexham, Flintshire, Denbighshire and Conwy—the name Clwyd still carries weight, especially in a cultural sense. This corner of Wales has deep roots in agriculture, mining and trade, but it's also known for its strong community feel, love of tradition and a growing appetite for change. Whether you're exploring castles, heading up into the hills, or just enjoying a pint in a market town, there's always a sense of grounded pride in the people and places.

We hope you found this Wrexham tourist map useful for your visit to the area.
