What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Llantrisant 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.
Llantrisant Castle was built in the 13th century by the de Lacy family, Marcher lords who held significant influence in Glamorgan. It is remembered as a strategic stronghold in the medieval Welsh Marches, reflecting the turbulent history of Norman expansion and control in south Wales.
