Follow the princes back in time

THE Princes of Gwynedd traced their royal line back to ancient times and became the most powerful dynasty in medieval Wales. 

For more than 800 years, the princes fought with one another and English rulers to secure their power. But this was not just a time of war and turmoil; the princes forged strong cultural and religious links with continental Europe and were patrons of architecture, music, and poetry.

The Princes of Gwynedd Exhibition can be seen at Conwy Tourist Information Centre and audio tours are available at some of most important sites in Welsh history including Dolwyddelan Castle, Gwydir Chapel, Aberconwy Abbey, and Deganwy Castle.
