Welcome to Redruth. Although we’re right at the heart of the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site, there’s more to Redruth than just mining. We have a vibrant creative arts scene, interesting architecture and we’re surrounded by some beautiful countryside for walking, biking and horse-riding.

Explore our new website or better yet, come and visit us to discover Redruth for yourself.
