Pembroke Castle

Pembroke Castle is an iconic landmark that stands as a reminder of the rich heritage and culture that Wales has to offer. Located in Pembrokeshire, this impressive fortress was built by Roger de Montgomery in 1093 and has been a prominent feature of the Welsh landscape ever since. With its towering walls and turrets, many visitors are inspired by the sheer power of this formidable monument; it’s easy to imagine why it was chosen as the setting for Shakespeare’s famous play Richard III!

Today, Pembroke Castle continues to be an important part of Welsh history and a must-see destination for tourists. Visitors can explore its well-preserved ramparts, dungeons, banqueting hall and great chapels while taking in breathtaking views over Milford Haven estuary. It’s possible to have access to a range of attractions such as guided tours, audio visual displays and re-enactments of historic events that occurred at Pembroke Castle.

The medieval Pembroke Castle Wales is an historical building and the start of the Tudor Dynasty.

    Very nice castle to visit well worth a 2 to 3 hour visit. What made the visit exceptional was the young lady who gave the free guided tour of the castle.

    Certainly worth the visit to this massive Castle. So full of history. Walking along the battlements and up narrow spiral tower stairs, you can almost feel what it must have been like living in, and defending the place. Fantastic.

    What a stunning castle quite a bit to see here, surprisingly big great to walk around and a picture in your head. Well worth a vist staff are polite grounds was quiet when we went only a handful of people so you could rest and really take the place in. Definitely worth a vist a bit to see and take on board really enjoyed our vist.
