There are various interesting ancient buildings, monasteries and historic houses around Wimborne Minster, and the River Stour itself is packed with history. The town has been a centre for pilgrimage and prayer for over a thousand years and has plenty of fascinating markers that share this rich past. Today, it is home to thriving businesses and start-ups, and bigger brands including the renowned interior paint firm, Farrow & Ball.
