About Coventry
Coventry has long been a centre of
motor and cycle manufacturing, dating back from 1896,
the car and cycle industry has been a strong centre
point for this town. Starting out with some less familiar
names such as Coventry Motette, Great Horseless Carriage
Co, Swift and more familiar names like Humber, Riley
and Daimler and the Triumph motorcycle having its
origins in 1902 in a Coventry factory. Although the
motor industry has declined, the Jaguar company has
its headquarters and a factory in the city, and a
large Peugeot car factory is located in Ryton just
outside the city. The famous London black cab taxis
are also produced in Coventry by LTI Coventry's main
industries include: cars, electronic equipment, machine
tools, agricultural machinery, man-made fibres, aerospace
components and telecommunications equipment. Coventry
is becoming increasingly important as a university
city, being the home of the University of Warwick
and Coventry University. It is also home to the Coventry
Transport Museum, where the world speed record breaking
cars, Thrust2 and ThrustSSC are displayed. On the
14th November 1940 during World War II, large areas
of the city, including its cathedral, were destroyed
in a massive German bombing raid (see History: 20th
Century below) and in later raids. The rebuilt Coventry
Cathedral was opened in 1962 next to the ruins of
the old. It was designed by Basil Spence and contains
the tapestry, "Christ in Majesty" by Graham
Sutherland and the bronze statue of St Michael and
the Devil by Jacob Epstein. Benjamin Britten's War
Requiem, regarded by some as his masterpiece, was
written for the opening of the new Cathedral. Statue
of Lady GodivaCoventry's most famous resident was
Lady Godiva, who according to legend, probably entirely
false, rode through the city naked on horseback (actually,
she likely rode the horse bareback, not barenaked),
in protest at high taxes being waged on the cityfolk
by her husband Leofric. According to the legend, the
residents of the city were asked to look away as she
rode, but one man didn't and was allegedly struck
blind, he became known as Peeping Tom thus originating
the term. There is a statue of her in the city centre.
Coventry City - You get the best of
both worlds in Coventry. In the Cathedral Quarter,
modern architecture and ancient ruins of the two Cathedrals
dominate cobbled streets of buzzing bars and restaurants.
In the modern City-centre, history is still evident
in the old city walls, the timber-framed buildings
and the reconstructed medieval Spon Street.
