About Derry-Londonderry

Derry, also called Londonderry, is a walled city on the River Foyle in Northern Ireland, with intact seventeenth-century ramparts and a layered history.

Derry stands on the River Foyle in the north-west of Northern Ireland, and its seventeenth-century walls, about a mile round, are the most complete city walls in Ireland and can be walked along the top. The Guildhall, a neo-Gothic building with stained-glass windows, stands beside the river, and St Columb's Cathedral dates from the 1630s. The Siege of Derry of 1688 and 1689 is the best-known episode in its history.
