El castillo est\u00e1 estrechamente ligado a la monarqu\u00eda brit\u00e1nica.

Se pueden recorrer las torres, los adarves y las puertas fortificadas y ver exposiciones sobre la historia galesa y los pr\u00edncipes de Gales. La Torre del \u00c1guila, coronada por tres torrecillas, ofrece amplias vistas de la ciudad, el puerto, Anglesey y las monta\u00f1as de Snowdonia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
