Wareham is a historic market town in Dorset, England, situated between the River Frome and River Piddle. The town's origins date back to Saxon times, and it retains its medieval layout with well-preserved Saxon walls – some of the best examples of their kind in England.

The town served as an important port during the medieval period until the harbor silted up. Today, Wareham maintains its historical character with its quay, Georgian architecture, and ancient churches including the Anglo-Saxon St. Martin's Church, known for its medieval wall paintings.

The town serves as a gateway to the Isle of Purbeck and is positioned near the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Its strategic location and rich history have influenced its cultural development, with several heritage sites and cultural venues preserving and showcasing local history and arts.
