Culture and tourism

In North Tyneside we have a great deal to celebrate.

We have rich and varied cultural assets ranging from our unique combination of river, coast and quayside through to such landmark reminders of our Roman, Christian and industrial heritage as Tynemouth Priory and Segedunum.

We are a unique borough with a strong sense of place and a vibrant community spirit. Our towns and villages have distinctive identities.
