The city was created as a fort by the Romans. Its name "Barcester" is made up of two words : "Bar" refers to the River Bar which crosses the city, and "cester" is from Old English "ceaster" ("Roman fortification", itself a loanword from Latin castra, "fort; fortified town").

The city rapidly growed during the Middle Ages. It became an economic and cultural centre. At this period were built the Castle and the St-Dinerbone Chapel.
