战役镇位于英格兰东南部,最著名的是1066年黑斯廷斯之战的遗址。

黑斯廷斯之战见证了撒克逊国王哈罗德二世被征服者威廉击败,后者随后成为威廉一世。 这次失败是英国历史上的一个戏剧性转折点;哈罗德在战斗中被杀(据说是被箭射中了眼睛!),尽管威廉的统治受到了进一步的抵抗,但正是这场战斗使他第一次掌握了英格兰的权力。 诺曼底的威廉公爵在约克郡的斯坦福桥(Stamford Bridge)刚刚击败维京人入侵的疲惫的英国军队,在黑斯廷斯西北约6英里处(他们登陆的地方)与诺曼人相遇,在森拉克山上。 在这里,7500名英国士兵中约有5000人被杀,而诺曼人则被杀。8500名诺曼人中有3000人丧生。

森拉克山现在是战役修道院的所在地,或称圣马丁修道院,由征服者威廉建立。 他曾发誓在他赢得战役时建造这样一座纪念碑,以示纪念;教皇曾下令建造它,作为对生命损失的忏悔。 修道院的建造发生在1070至1094年间;它于1095年建成。 据说修道院的高坛标志着哈罗德国王死在这里的地方。

今天,由英国遗产组织管理的修道院遗址在镇中心占主导地位,是一个主要的旅游景点。 战役围绕着修道院而建,修道院的大门仍然是高街的主要特征,尽管建筑的其他部分保存得不那么好。 虽然大门比原来的修道院要新,建于1338年,作为对另一个法国的进一步保护。入侵!

战役也因其是17世纪英国火药工业的中心而闻名,是当时欧洲最好的供应商。 事实上,该地区的磨坊一直为英国军队提供火药,直到克里米亚战争。 甚至有人认为盖伊-福克斯使用的火药是在这里获得的。 这解释了为什么最古老的盖伊-福克斯的雕像被作为文物保存在战役博物馆。

战役不仅有深厚的社会历史,也有自然历史。 该镇位于东萨塞克斯郡美丽的乡村,南海岸近在咫尺。 将社会历史和自然历史结合在一起的是1066年乡村步行,你可以沿着征服者威廉的足迹行走。 这是一个50公里的步行(但不是一个艰苦的步行!),从Pevensey到Rye经过、它带你穿过古老的定居点和各种景观;林地、海岸和山坡。 来体验见证英国历史转折点的景观。
