Description

Harlech Castle is a concentric castle, constructed on a clifftop close to the Irish Sea. Built between 1283 and 1290 by King Edward I during his conquest of Wales, the castle was subject to several assaults and sieges during its period of active use as a fortification. The seven-year siege of the castle has been memorialised in the famous song, "Men of Harlech".
