Wimborne Minster is an ancient town whose history dates back to the eight century. For a glimpse into Wimborne s history, it would be a very interesting experience to visit the Wimborne Model Town , which shows in miniature what the area looked like in the past.
Among the attractions in the area are the twin towered Minster Church , which features a 14th century astronomical clock and a chained library, and the Knoll Gardens , which counts more than 4,000 botanical specimens in its impressive collection.
Another notable location is the Stapehill Abbey . A silent order of Cistercian Nuns used to be based there, but it now houses a display showing the work of the religious community, an agricultural exhibition, and a craft centre.
