Twin Cities

Coventry currently has links with 26 twin cities across the world. Established following World War II, these links focused on reconciliation, friendship and peace. These themes were core elements in Coventry’s post-war bid to be the City of Peace and Reconciliation.

This tour will explore the stories of four selected twin cities and explore how Coventry continues to benefit from these twin relationships.
