Powis Castle is shown as a castle on the public map of Powys. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Powis Castle was built by the Welsh princes of Powys in the 13th century and later held by the Clwyd family, becoming a significant medieval stronghold. It is important as a well-preserved example of Welsh castle architecture and as a symbol of the region's complex history of Welsh and English influence.
