We are talking about the arena for 36,000 spectators, which should appear in the harbor area of ​​Portsmouth. It will occupy, together with a residential area for 750 apartments, 5.2 hectares of territory “reclaimed” from the sea.
In addition, the Coastal Quarter ensemble will also include 0.4 hectares of a public recreation area.
This £600m project involving one of the world’s leading architectural firms is not the only one the club has to its credit. Portsmouth, owned by Russian-born businessman Alexander Gaydamak, plans to replace the old stadium in 2011 in Fratton Park (not far from the new arena) with a residential complex designed by Ken Shuttleworth’s Make.

Portsmouth Cultural Heritage Tour | What to visit in Portsmouth

Hotel search in Portsmouth

The main symbol of a large port city is the historical docks, which were constructed back in 1194. Today, several beautiful old ships are moored here, each of which has its own amazing history. One of them is the flagship “Mary Rose” (Magu Rose). It was built in 1509 and belonged to the fleet of Henry VIII. Nearby is another beautiful flagship – “Victoria”. In 1805, he participated in the battle of Trafalgar Square, it was on this ship that Admiral Nelson managed to win.

Portsmouth is the perfect place for a romantic getaway with a decent selection of charming hotels. Seacrest Hotel is a popular destination for couples. This boutique hotel is … Open

Moored at the docks is the world’s first cruiser, the Warrier, which was built in 1860. The dock area is one of the most favorite places for tourists to walk. You can admire the ships moored here all day long. Not far from the harbor there is a historical district, on the territory of which many interesting architectural monuments have been preserved.

An outstanding building is the Moffad-Ladd house. It was built in 1763 and has survived to this day in its original form, a beautiful building is an excellent example of the so-called federal style that prevailed in Portsmouth at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. A few steps from the house is the Wentworth Gardner House building, which is also interesting from an architectural point of view. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

Portsmouth is considered a very attractive city for shopping. There are several interesting shopping areas on its territory. The Ganuarf district is considered the largest and most attractive … Open

Spacious rooms are decorated with antique furniture and art objects. Portsmouth has a huge number of museums and galleries, a visit to which must be included in the excursion program. The Royal Naval Museum is one of the most visited places in the city.

Also of interest is the Royal Marines Museum, and those who are impressed by a walk along the historic docks should definitely look into the Historic Dockyard Museums. An interesting place for the whole family will be the Children’s Museum, where various interactive games are held every day. In the Albacore open-air museum, visitors can see the legendary submarine of the same name. She was built in 1953 and at that time was the fastest submarine in the world. Among the religious sights, the most interesting is the Cathedral of St. Thomas of Canterbury. A beautiful building with a rich history will definitely appeal to connoisseurs of architecture of past centuries.

Portsmouth is located on the shores of the Solent, it is a major port city, as well as the base of the British Navy. The city is very interesting for travelers because, like in any old English town, … Open

It is worth noting a few more beautiful religious sites, which are difficult to pass by. This is, for example, the Cathedral of St John’s Catholic Cathedral, which was founded in 1882. It is also notable for the fact that it was the first cathedral built in the city. The architect was John Crowley, but the master could not see his creation, having died a year before the construction of the shrine. As for the architectural style of the church, it was built in the Gothic Revival style, which was especially popular at the time. Another wonderful religious site is St Mary’s Church. For the first time, a religious building on the site of the current cathedral was erected at the beginning of the 12th century, and the building that can be seen today was built in the Victorian era. The same neo-gothic style is visible in the style.

Fans of viewing fortifications should go to the nearby town of Potsmouth – Gosport, where the “Advanced Gosport Line” is located, this is how this chain of five forts was called. These include Forts Brockhurst and Elson to the north, and Grange, Rowner and Gomer to the south. Each of them deserves a separate visit, their rich history fascinates any tourist. They were built in the middle of the 19th century to protect Portsmouth. The project for the construction of five forts was carried out by an officer of the Royal Engineers, William Crossman. A distinctive feature of the fortifications is their good preservation.

Vacationers with children in Portsmouth should definitely visit Leisure Island Park. This is a very beautiful and interesting amusement park, where there are suitable attractions for both kids and … Open

Gosport is home to the beautiful Little Woodham “living history village”, showing visitors the life of the British in the 17th century. It was created in 1984 for a temporary exhibition, but the locals liked the village so much that they were not ready to say goodbye to it – thus, the attraction is supported by the money of volunteers and the City Council. The complex includes a coal forge, pottery, weaving and turning workshops, a pharmacy, a hairdresser’s, a carpenter’s house. All buildings were recreated on the basis of excavations. It is worth noting that interesting holidays are often held in the village (Craft Day, Labor Day).

You can not ignore the defensive structure of Fort Nelson – one of the main symbols of Portsmouth along with the docks (Historic Dockyard). The fort was erected in 1859 to protect Great Britain from French troops. However, already in 1907 the fortification ceased to be such, in the 1950s the building was completely abandoned. Today you can find the Royal Arsenal here. Among the rare weapons presented in the Armory are the English cannon of 1450 (Boxted Bombard), as well as the Turkish bronze cannon of the period of 1464 (Dardanelles Gun) and weapons from the former colonies of Great Britain (India, China). Nearby is another remarkable fortification – Fort Southwick.

Another historically interesting building in Portsmouth is the medieval Portchester Castle, built on the site of a former Roman fort at the end of the 11th century. In 1154 the castle was in the possession of the monarchy, King John Lakdend (Landless) chose it as a favorite hunting lodge. Another monarch, Edward II, in order to avoid the attack of the French (which happened more than once in these lands), at the beginning of the XIV century ordered to strengthen the castle. It was here that a conspiracy against Henry V was discovered, the perpetrators were detained right in the fortress. Later, the building was used as a prison, but today you can find a museum here that stores artifacts from the Middle Ages.

But Portsmouth is not only about “living history”. Today it is flourishing, and relatively recently, the Spinnaker Tower, built in 2005, has become its symbol. In addition, the iconic place is notable for its original design in the form of a sail, developed by HGP Architects. The sail represents the rich maritime history of the British city. In addition, it is also the tallest building in the UK (its height is 170 meters). Those wishing to watch some of the theatrical performances should head to one of the several theaters to choose from: The Kings Theater or New Theater Royal, interesting shows for the whole family are also held at the cultural institutions Portsmouth Guildhall and The Spring Arts and Heritage Centre.

Portsmouth is an amazing city that attracts travelers not only with sights, but also with a rich cultural life. During the year, a lot of themed events are held here … Open

The real “pearl” of the city is the Portsmouth Museum with several thematic areas. Thus, connoisseurs of the work of Arthur Conan Doyle will appreciate the exhibition exploring the life of an outstanding British author and his most famous character. The second exhibition focuses on the other passion of the British – football, and the third – the history of the unique city of Portsmouth. Here you can see the recreated interior of the Victorian era (kitchen, bedroom, living room of that time). Another exhibition is dedicated to the fine arts from the 17th century to the modern.

Portsmouth gave birth to another outstanding British writer – Charles Dickens, which is why the house where he was born becomes a place of pilgrimage for all connoisseurs of literature and, in particular, the work of the author of the story about Oliver Twist. The Charles Dickens’ Birthplace building is located next to the city’s main attraction – the Historic Dockyard. Among the military museums, it is worth highlighting the cultural institution WW1 Remembrance Center, which houses many artifacts from the First World War.
