Coordinates 53°11′33″N 2°53′28″W / 53.1926°N 2.8912°W / 53.1926; -2.8912Chester was founded as a "castrum" or Roman fort with the name Deva Victrix in the year 79[citation needed] by the Roman Legio II Adiutrix. Chester's four main roads, Eastgate, Northgate, Watergate and Bridge, follow routes laid out at this time&_160;– almost 2,000 years ago. One of the three main Roman army bases, Deva later became a major settlement in the Roman province of Britannia. After the Romans left in the 5th century, the Saxons fortified the town against the Danes and gave Chester its name. The patron saint of Chester, Werburgh, is buried in Chester Cathedral. Chester was one of the last towns in England to fall to the Normans in the Norman conquest of England. William the Conqueror ordered the construction of a castle, to dominate the town and the nearby Welsh border. In 1071[citation needed] he created Hugh d'Avranches, the 1st Earl of Chester. Chester has the reputation of being the "English medieval city par excellence", but many of its buildings are from the Victorian era.[3] Along with Derry, Chester makes a claim for being one of the best preserved complete walled cities in the British Isles[4][5][6] It has the most complete city walls in Great Britain,[7] and most sections of the walls are listed Grade I. The Industrial Revolution brought railways, canals, and new roads to the city, which saw substantial expansion and development&_160;– Chester Town Hall and the Grosvenor Museum are examples of Victorian architecture from this period.
