About Norwich - show infohide info
The city of Norwich is the regional administrative centre and capital city of the county of Norfolk, England. Norwich city was sacked by Danes in the 11th century and devastated by the Black Death in 1348. At the time of the Norman conquest, Norwich was one of the largest cities in England, and it continued to be a major centre for trade, especially wool. The wealth generated by the wool trade throughout the Middle Ages resulted in the construction of many fine churches. Norwich still has one of the highest number of splendid medieval churches in western Europe. A shift from the decline in industries in Norwich city throughout the eighties and nineties to new entrepreneurial activities has stabilised the city's economy. Recent developments include the Norfolk and Norwich University hospital at Colney, the 'Forum', home of the Millennium Library and regional BBC broadcasting, and the Riverside entertainment complex. The University of East Anglia was founded in Norwich in 1963. Norwich airport offers scheduled international services and holiday charter flights, and developed from the former RAF airfield at Horsham St Faith. This was once the home of Air UK, which grew out of Air Anglia and eventually became part of the Dutch airline KLM.
