What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Castell Dinas Bran (Ruined Castle) as Castle from the Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Built by the Prince of Powys, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, in the 13th century, Castell Dinas Bran was an important stronghold in the Welsh Wars of Independence. It is remembered for its strategic location and as a symbol of Welsh resistance against English rule.
