Marazion has been drawing visitors for centuries, long before anyone was coming for the beach.
A charter from Henry III in 1257
Marazion was granted a charter of incorporation by Henry III in 1257, renewed by Elizabeth I in 1595, making it the oldest chartered town in Cornwall. Its old name, Marghas Yow, means 'Thursday Market', a nod to the trade that built the town.
Across the causeway to St Michael's Mount
The town's prosperity was long tied to pilgrims visiting the Benedictine monastery on St Michael's Mount, just offshore. A stone causeway built in 1425 still lets visitors walk across at low tide, for about four hours a day, before the sea closes back over it.
Sweets still arrive the same way as everywhere else
Marazion's history is built on charters and pilgrims, not confectionery — so pick 'n' mix, bulk bags and trade cases for the town come by delivery, the same as the rest of Cornwall and the UK.
