Eyam ( /ˈiːm/) is an English village and civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales that lies within the Peak District National Park. There is evidence of early occupation by Ancient Britons on the surrounding moors and lead was mined in the area by the Romans. A settlement was founded on the present site by Anglo-Saxons, when mining was continued and other industries later developed. However, Eyam’s main claim to fame is the story of how the village chose to go into isolation so as to prevent infection spreading after bubonic plague was discovered there in 1665.

  • Eyam (/ˈiːm/) ist ein Dorf in Derbyshire, England. Das mittelenglische Dorf im Peak District ist bis heute als „Pest-Dorf“ bekannt, da es im August 1665, als die Große Pest von London ankam, eine Quarantäne über sich selbst verhängte, um so eine weitere Ausbreitung der Infektion nach Norden zu verhindern. Eyam ist eine Gründung der Angelsachsen, die dem Ort auch den Namen gaben. Die Römer hatten in der Umgebung bereits Blei abgebaut. (de)
