Getting from London to Rugby by train
From its connection to the sport of rugby to its rich cultural heritage, Rugby is a historic town with
plenty to offer travellers.
Rugby is home to a variety of cultural landmarks, including Rugby School, where the sport of rugby was
first invented. You can take a tour of the school and learn about the history of the game.
There’s also the Rugby Art Gallery and Museum, which features a range of exhibitions on local history, art
and culture. From the invention of jet engines to Alice in Wonderland, Rugby's global influence stretches beyond the
sport which holds its name.
