Il Castello di Conwy \u00e8 uno dei castelli medievali pi\u00f9 imponenti del Regno Unito. Re Edoardo I lo fece costruire tra il 1283 e il 1287, durante la conquista del Galles, come roccaforte militare e insieme simbolo dell\u2019autorit\u00e0 reale. Sorge su una roccia accanto all\u2019estuario del fiume Conwy, nel Galles del Nord, ed \u00e8 famoso per le otto torri massicce, i due barbacani e le vedute sulle montagne e sul mare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work was directed by James of St George, the leading military architect of his time, and the castle and town walls together cost about \u00a315,000, a huge sum for the period. Much of the structure survives remarkably well. Visitors can walk the battlements, climb the towers and explore the great hall, the chapel and the royal apartments of the inner ward, described as the best-preserved medieval royal chambers in England and Wales. The town walls, 1.3 km long with 21 towers and three gates, still enclose the old town and are among the finest in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A short section of the town walls is closed for safety work and is expected to reopen by Easter 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
