Did a church usually dominate a medieval town?

Yes. Churches and cathedrals were the main building in medieval towns and cities. The market square was usually built around them. Even today in cities and towns that existed in the medieval period you can see the basic layout of the city and streets from that time. --- The single distinguishing (as opposed to dominant) feature of a medieval town was the presence of a permanent market. A town could have more than one church, and when it did, it was sometimes the case that neither was really dominant. A village, by contrast, was usually dominated by its church, since it could have neither a permanent market nor a second church. A city was the site of a cathedral, and was usually dominated by it.


Why is cantubury known in the medieval times?

Canterbury is known in medieval times primarily for its significance as a pilgrimage site, largely due to the martyrdom of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in 1170. His shrine at Canterbury Cathedral became a major destination for pilgrims, inspired by Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales," which highlights the diverse stories of those traveling there. The cathedral itself also served as a center of religious authority and education during this period, further establishing Canterbury's prominence in medieval England.
