North Yorkshire was established as a county in 1974, combining parts of the historic counties of Yorkshire. The region has a storied past, dating back to the Roman occupation and the Viking invasions. Notable historical milestones include the construction of York Minster, one of the largest Gothic cathedrals in Northern Europe, which began in the 11th century.
