Discover the history of Brighton

The city of Brighton began as a small Roman villa between the first and fourth centuries, when the Celts took control of the town again. Later, with the invasion of the Anglo-Saxons, the region became part of the Kingdom of Sussex. In the 11th-13th century, the town was transformed into a fishing and agricultural settlement. In addition, the Normans arrived at this time, transforming the city into an important marketing centre. In the 18th century, the city began a process of decline that looked set to wipe out Brighton's economy. Until the end of the century, this wonderful place went from being a decaying fishing town to the largest and most impressive resort town in the whole of the United Kingdom. At the end of the 20th century, Queen Elizabeth II unified the cities of Brighton and Hove to commemorate the end of the century. Today, Brighton remains a favourite place for visitors.
