What is recorded here

Conwy Castle is one of Europe's most complete medieval fortresses, built between 1283 and 1289 under Edward I to lock Welsh resistance inside a ring of stone. Eight massive towers rise above the Conwy Estuary, their arrow slits still framing the sea and mountains that guards watched centuries ago. The castle does not ask you to imagine it; it shows its purpose in every staircase, wall and chamber.

Conwy Castle is shown as a castle on the public map of Conwy. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.

Built by Edward I of England between 1283 and 1287, Conwy Castle was part of his campaign to subdue Wales after the revolt of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd. It is remembered as a key component of Edward I's Iron Ring of castles, symbolizing English dominance in Wales.
