ABOUT REDRUTH

Redruth is a historic Cornish town which is putting culture and heritage at the heart of its renaissance. Already home to Kresen Kernow, Cornwall’s state-of-the-art new archive centre, Krowji, Cornwall’s largest creative hub, and friends such as Kowsva and Golden Tree Productions, it makes a natural choice for us to plant our roots, to grow and to thrive. 

 

The town is twinned with Plumergat in Brittany, Real Del Monte in Mexico and Mineral Point in the US – sharing our love of international cultural exchange.

 

 

Redruth is centrally located in Cornwall with excellent public transport links.
