Twin Towns, St Albans Civic Centre
The seven roundels depict the coats of arms of the city of St Albans itself (top) and of its twin towns and cities, from top right to bottom left as follows:
Nevers, France. Nevers in Burgundy is, like St Albans, a cathedral city with Roman origins, and the link was established in 1974.
Nyíregyháza, Hungary - twinned in 1996.
Odense, Denmark. The link between the two cities dates to 1948 and was suggested by Count Scheel, a Danish citizen who had lived in St Albans for many years. Odense has a church of St Alban and King Canute/Knut of England and Denmark is said to have taken an arm of St Alban to Denmark as a holy relic.
Sylhet municipality, Bangladesh (the country is not named on the roundel). This is a community-led friendship link rather than a formal town twinning, and began in 1988. There is a significant Bangladeshi community originating from Sylhet in St Albans.
Fano, Italy. This seaside town has, like St Albans, a significant Roman heritage. The link dates from 1998.
Worms, Germany. This cathedral city on the Rhine has important Roman and medieval remains.
