King Edward I built Conwy Castle between 1283 and 1289, during his conquest of Wales, together with the walls that still ring the town. His master mason, James of St George, completed it in just four years.
With its eight great towers, it is one of the finest medieval fortresses in Europe. It is part of the Castles and Town Walls of King Edward in Gwynedd UNESCO World Heritage Site and is cared for by Cadw.
