Help to correct, please

1) "This town has many beautiful places and is of historical significance".
2) "It'll be a pleasure to HAVE you in our company".
I have some ideas. First of all, we should divide the 1st sent. into two parts. "This town has many beautiful places. It has historical significance". But am I right using "historical significance" this way? Are there any other options? Is there a possible sentence if we won't divide the original one?
Does it sound right when we use "have" in the second sentence? Will it be better to say "see"? Or may be "It'll be a pleasure if you are in our company".
Thanks in advance!!
