Gloucester is a historic cathedral city and district seat of Gloucestershire in South West England. Situated on the River Severn, the city has a rich heritage dating back to Roman times when it was founded as Glevum. The city's skyline is dominated by the magnificent Gloucester Cathedral, a remarkable example of Gothic architecture that began as a Norman abbey church in the 11th century. The cathedral's cloisters famously appeared in several Harry Potter films.

The city's maritime history is evident in its well-preserved Victorian docks, which form the most inland port in Britain. These docks have been transformed into a modern cultural quarter, featuring museums, shops, and restaurants while maintaining their historic character. Gloucester has a strong industrial heritage, particularly in aerospace engineering, and continues to be an important economic center in the region.

The city maintains several museums that showcase its history and cultural heritage, from its Roman foundations to its medieval religious importance and its maritime past. The city center features a mix of historic buildings and modern developments, reflecting its evolution through different periods of British history.
