Venta Icenorum Roman Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Venta Icenorum, ("Market-place of the Iceni") was the largest Roman town in East Anglia.

It came to fame as the capital city of the Iceni tribe led by perhaps the famous queen, Boudica. The town is thought to have come into being around 60-61 AD after the tribe’s revolt against Roman rule.

Venta Icenorum is one of only three towns in the UK from the Roman era that weren’t sacked, destroyed or built over by more modern towns and cities.
