Caernarfon Castle

A Royal fortress-palace built on legends and bitter medieval conflict

Caernarfon Castle is recognised internally as one of the greatest buildings of the Middle Ages.

A castle of dreams. A legend brought to life. Even after 700 years it still stirs the imagination like no other Welsh castle.

Criccieth Castle

Spectacular coastal castle built – and destroyed – by powerful Welsh princes

Sadly there is little left of the castle now, but don’t let that put you off visiting. Crowning its own rocky headland between two beaches it commands astonishing views over the town and across the wide sweep of Cardigan Bay.
