Castell Coch stands in Cardiff, Wales, a castle visible on the public map. Its red walls and tall towers mark the local landscape, while its chambers and grounds invite people to imagine the lives that moved through them. The castle still gives that part of the city a shape, a history and a reason to be remembered.
Castell Coch is shown as a castle on the public map of Cardiff. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
