This wall extends from the castle and has stone carvings of various animals which would have been very exotic when it was created. Much fun 🙂

A wonderfully well preserved effigy of the rich history that is present across Cardiff and South Wales

The red dragon stands in the castle's courtyard. It symbolizes Welsh national pride.

Originally a small medieval fortress, it is thought that the palace was first built by William de Braose who became Bishop in 1266. The palace was abandoned as a residence following damage in the Owain Glyndwr rebellion of 1402-05, with the Bishops thereafter preferring their more secure dwelling at Mathern in Monmouthshire. Although the palace seems to have remained intact until at least 1601, it was probably destroyed during the English Civil War when many castles were similarly slighted by Parliamentarian forces. The only substantial remains today are the impressive gatehouse, the rest of the site is now an ornamental park which was developed in the 1970’s.

Such a beautiful place and quite an emotional and spiritual place for me. As Grace mentioned above it has a chapel. That chapel is called Penrhiw chapel, it was built in Drefach Felindre in West Wales. My father lived a very short walk from that chapel, the entire family used to worship in it and my cousin ended up preaching in it (he is alive today at 95+). My dad and his brothers all went away to fight in WW2, they would come back and find solace in 'Penrhiw' for the ones who didn't come back. It was really the spiritual fulcrum for my whole family. I guess I am lucky as every time I go to St Fagan's I can go to Penrhiw and speak to my father once more....

St Fagans Castle & Gardens is situated inside the grounds of St Fagans museum. It is a Grade I listed building and a fantastic example of an Elizabethan manor house. The house is open for the public to explore, and the interior is designed to reflect how it would have looked when the occupants were living in inside. Some very helpful staff will be happy to run you through some of the fascinating history attached to the place.

St Fagans is a museum situated to the west of the city of Cardiff in South Wales that beautifully showcases the history of Welsh life. The museum is Wales' most popular heritage attraction, bringing many visitors each year. There are endless fascinating places to discover inside the grounds, including an old sweet shop, a chapel, a Workmen's Institute, a set of traditional cottages laid out in their original style, and a late 16th-century manor house and gardens. It is free to enter the grounds and opening times are 10am-5pm every day.

Located in the courtyard. In any case, inform in advance whether events such as concerts are taking place. Then the inner courtyard is closed
