Europe is a wonderfully historic continent, brimming with cities that offer a glimpse into the past.

From the cultured streets of Paris to the grand structures of Rome, Europe has something for every traveler. If you're filled with wanderlust, here are some of the most historic European cities to explore.
Rome
Naturally, we can’t leave Rome off any list of historic European cities to explore.
- From the incredible Colosseum to the sequestered Vatican City, Rome is the place to absorb both Christian and secular history.
- Legend has it that Rome was founded by the twins Romulus and Remus, but the truth is shrouded in myth and legend.
However Rome was founded, it remains an absolutely stunning city to this day, and there’s a lot to discover here.
Paris
The Eiffel Tower. The Arc de Triomphe. The Louvre.
Paris is another historic European city that needs no introduction. It’s well worth setting aside some time to walk through its streets, as you’re bound to come across: A boulangerie A galerie that’s worth your time
Paris is almost a microcosm of European cities; it’s a place where you could spend your entire life exploring without ever seeing everything. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try, though!
Barcelona
Barcelona may not be the capital of Spain, but it’s certainly one of the cultural hubs of the country.
- It boasts a mixture of religious history, with contributions from Christians, Muslims, and other major religions.
