The Old Lifeboat House Penzance

Highlight • Historical Site

The Old Lifeboat House in Penzance is a historic building that originally served as a lifeboat station. It was built in 1884 to house lifeboats used to rescue sailors and passengers in distress along the Penzance coast and surrounding waters. Lifeboats operated from this station until 1917, when they were moved to other locations.
Today the Old Lifeboat House no longer serves its original purpose, having been adapted for various commercial and cultural uses in modern times. However, it remains a significant symbol of Penzance's maritime history and commemorates the heroic efforts of the rescue teams.

Penzance Seafront and Harbour

Highlight • Settlement

The coastal resort of Penzance has a faded-glamour that’s synonymous with the British seaside at its best. Renowned for great weather and plenty of nostalgia, the town has plenty to see, do and explore.

Lloyds Bank and Humphry Davy Statue, Market Jew Street

The magnificent building is crowned by a dome that characterizes the city. From a distance it looks like a magnificent baroque church.
