At 58 letters, this is the longest town name in all of Europe
It wasn't always the town's name, though — in the 1860s, the name was developed as a way to entice tourists to make the town a stop on their travels.

So yeah, welcome to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogogoch! You don't need to be able to say it to enjoy your stay.
