Coast Rd A55
Conwy, Wales LL32 8AY
Thanks to restored spiral staircases in its great towers you can walk a complete circuit around the battlements of CastellConwy, a magnificent medieval fortress that still towers over the town after 700 years. Built in the late 13th century and reputed to be haunted by a past resident, this picturesque castle was built for King Edward I and is a perfect example of the "concentric castle" design. In the distance rise the craggy mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia) and spread out below you are the harbour and narrow streets of Conwy – still protected by an unbroken 1,400-yard (1.3km) ring of town walls. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for unexpected closures, opening times, events, and site facilities.
