Sweets in Harlech: UNESCO-Listed Castle Above the Beach

Harlech is a small town dominated by one of the most dramatic castles in Britain, perched on a rocky outcrop above the beach.

Part of Edward I's Ring of Iron

Harlech Castle was built from 1283 by Edward I, largely completed by 1290, as part of a chain of fortresses designed to control North Wales after his conquest. It was designed by the master architect James of St George, who used the local rock and the sea itself as part of its defences.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986

The castle survived sieges during the Welsh revolts of the 1290s, was captured by Owain Glyndŵr in 1404 and retaken in 1409, and was a Lancastrian stronghold through the Wars of the Roses. Since 1986, Harlech Castle has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site, grouped with the castles and town walls of Beaumaris, Caernarfon and Conwy.
