Caernarvon, Carnarvon, Caernarfon
Caernarfon, a royal town boasting a rich history, graces the eastern shore of the Menai Strait. This town, easily accessible via the A487
road, lies opposite the Isle of Anglesey and a short distance from the majestic Snowdonia (Eryri) mountains. Evidence of human habitation dates back to
prehistoric times, fueled by the abundant natural resources surrounding the Menai Strait. The Romans played a role in shaping the area's history with
the construction of Segontium fort around 80 AD. Later, Caernarfon became part of the Kingdom of Gwynedd in the late 11th
century. Edward I of England cemented his mark on the
town in the 13th century by constructing the imposing Caernarfon Castle, one of the largest
fortifications in Wales. Over the centuries, Caernarfon overcame hostilities and
flourished as a major tourist destination and the seat of Gwynedd Council.
