Summary
| Description |
English: Castell Harlech Harlech castle atop its rock, as seen from Bronwen Terrace. Edward I built Harlech in the late 13th century - it was one of the most formidable of his 'iron ring' of fortresses designed to contain the Welsh in their mountain fastness.
In 1404 it was taken by Owain Glyn Dwr who proceeded to hold a parliament here. A long siege here during the Wars of the Roses inspired the stirring song 'Men of Harlech'.
