The city was founded by King John This is perhaps the best place to start this; the founding of the city. Also known as the villain in Robin Hood, King John founded Liverpool in 1207 when he was the king of England. He worked with King Richard The Lionheart’s brother. Does the name sound familiar? It is because of Robin Hood. This fun fact will interest you and might not even be strange to you if you love literature and movies. Back in the early 13th century, attacking the Irish was King John’s favourite pass-time. In order to do that, he would sail from Chester and needed to pay a tax to the Earl. To evade that tax, he founded his own port city, choosing Liverpool in 1207. 9. Home of the world’s only International Slavery Museum Did you know that the world’s only slavery museum is in Liverpool? Located on Albert Dock inside the Merseyside Maritime Museum building, this museum is one of the best. It is most of all unique in the world. Founded in the early 1900s, it was obviously not to eulogize slavery but to help appreciate the important role it played in those days in the development of the city during the Triangle Trade. It remains one of the best cultural buildings in the UK that is available to visit. That historical gem always produces poignant exploratory voyages as it examines West Africans and the rich diverse art heritage they brought to Europe as slaves. 8. Liverpool has the most number one hit singles To hold the world record for most number-one hit singles released, Liverpool’s bands have produced 56 as of the last check. That’s one of the reasons the Guinness Book of World Records named it The City of Pop in 2001. Also in 2015, it was crowned the UNESCO City of Music. The Beatles certainly helped to set the pace for this one. But a variety of other bands and artists have benefited from Liverpool’s pop and rock musical traditions. Ever since the 1950s, these traditions have been active. One of the most well-known single hits having links with this city is ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone.’ Through the years, it has evolved into an eternal song for the city bringing thousands of its fans together. 7. Over 2,500 Listed Buildings There are over 2,500 listed buildings in Liverpool divided into two categories with 27 being Grade I and 85 Grade II structures. Just imagine how rich the history of this incredible city would be and how much fans of British history can learn. Considering the fact that it has nearly 300 years of history behind it, that figure of 2,500 shouldn’t be surprising at all. This exquisite infrastructure in Liverpool tells a narrative of its world-class port which saw its fortunes sink in the 1900s and how it now enjoys renewed prosperity as an international cultural hub. Among such buildings is the Victorian Albert Dock mentioned earlier. It is the greatest single collection in the country consisting solely of cast iron, brickwork, and stone construction.
