CONWY CASTLE: WELCOME TO THE MIDDLE AGES! (4K)

- Опубликовано: 22 фев 2020
- Conwy Castle in Conwy, Wales is one of the best preserved medieval castles in Britain. It was my #1 reason to visit Conwy. When you walk through the front gate, you walk back in time, into the Middle Ages and beyond. You can feel the history that took place here. The castle was built at the end of the 13th century by Edward I, King of England, who had conquered Wales. The castle played a key part in in both Welsh and English history, including being involved in several wars over the centuries. Throughout the video, I give you the history of Conwy Castle and added some medieval music to help get you in a medieval mood.

Boy oh boy it's impressive now just imagine what the locals thought when they first set eyes on this high tech structure !
Lived by this my entire life and I still find it amazing every time I see it, I often just stop and stare at how amazing it is, I’m the shot where you pan across the river looking over to Llandudno junction and deganwy there’s actually remains of a ruined older castle on the hill side 👍👍
It must be great living in a town with all that history.
3:47 This guy Welsh sounds like R2-D2 trying to decipher one crazy ass code😂💯💎
I was there in the 90s, a wonderful town and castle
So much of it left , it is restorable. Anyone from the county council prepared to make a proposal to fund it's restoration!? It would make a superb community resource!🤔☺️
I visited this castle in March of 1996. I think it was the 1st castle I had ever seen. What was crazy about it was its right next to the road. When you drive by it is super imposing. I wish I could tell what it actually looked like when it was in its prime.
Hi Todd. It was definitely one of my favorite castles to visit-you could feel the history.
Edward was no mug. He built the castle right next to the main road so that he could get resupplied by articulated lorries more easily.
Amazing History. Plus adding Music of the Time. Makes a Real sence of the lives they lead. Thankyou!.
You're welcome! As an American, I just loved visiting the centuries-old castles in England and Wales. So much history and I always try to picture what it was like there centuries ago. And, I could see the castle from my hotel room!
I love the video! I was there last year in July. I got so excited watching it. It was definitely the highlight of my trip. ❤️
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it. It's was actually one of my favorite videos to film and edit. It was the #1 reason I went to Conwy, which has a lot of great things going for it. I love castles, the Middle Ages, and British history, so when I can stand in a place where I can experience all of that, I'm a happy camper.
Visited Conwy in 1992 or so. Sadly, the castle was closed that wkend because a lady had flung herself from one of the walls. :+( However, I loved the village, visiting the smallest house in the world and combing the antique shops. I purchased an old birthday book and asked the shopkeeper if anyone knew the owner. She did, and I went to visit an elderly lady who was shocked and then elated that a Canadian girl would be searching her out. It was a delightful visit, despite the castle closure. I enjoyed this video visit! Thank you.
You're welcome and thanks for watching!
Wow, 4 miles from where I live in Llandudno!
Have you visited the castle?
@@AndysAwesomeAdventures Many times in the past, most recently about 8 years ago when there was a renaissance weekend taking part with displays of armour and fighting. Not recently though. As with all locals, things on your doorstep become invisible to me as I see them so often. Plus I don't want to pay to get into something I am so familiar with. People travel a long way to visit my area of North Wales and I pay money to travel to other places. Ironic really. So much to see and do for me locally but I am bored of it all. I bet it is the same for everyone though. People that live in NYC probably don't visit the touristy areas. I'm travelling to Germany in about a weeks time. Looking forward to exploring Nuremberg castle. Travel all that way and expense to see a castle and other sights. When arguably I have better on my door step.
Yes, a lot of people don't go sightseeing in their own town or city. It's great that you've been there a few times, especially during a renaissance weekend. That must have been cool.
Cool. Thanks 4 the tour. Probably 1 of the better castles in Wales.
You're welcome! I really enjoyed walking around the castle and staying in Conwy.
I love this castle. Been many a time. Just need to take my kids
Wow, what a castle! great vlog and look forward to watching more soon :)
Thanks! I really enjoyed visiting Conwy Castle-you could close your eyes and picture all the history that took place here.
Very nice castle!
Awesome.... ❤❤
Thank you-I loved visiting Conwy Castle.
Beautiful Scenery 🌄🎄🎉
It really is!
Wow, very ancient castle.
Yes, I love older castles, especially the ones that have a lot of the original castle left like Conwy Castle.
Nice vid. I live in Deganwy a mile away.
Thank you so much! That's so cool that you can visit the castle whenever you want.
Thanks for the tour. I‘m visiting Liverpool at the end of the year and might make a day trip to Conwy🏴. Was there a gift shop?
We came to Conwy after visiting Liverpool. There are gift/souvenir shops in the town.
Just visited this today and it was brilliant...if you like castles, I do 🙂
The thing I liked about this castle is none of it is of bounds, you can walk on all levels, its not massively safe for kids to run about so be aware.
As you can tell, I really enjoyed walking around this castle, thinking of all the history that the castle is a part of. Glad you enjoyed the castle, too!
@@AndysAwesomeAdventures yes I am the same, I really like to imagine what it would have been like, the atmosphere, smells and the visual impact. Wish I had a device to go back to any point in time, would love to see how much difference there is between post and pre industrial humans, habits, hobbies, laws and etiquette. So so interesting and for me the period between the 10th century up until the 17th century are rich in culture and I just love exploring and learning about it. All the best with your travels 😀
visited here over the summer but we didn't get in the actual castle because of the Covid :( we had a nice walk round the town walls. it was a great trip and you can really see why he built it. Spectacular views :)
We really enjoyed visiting Conwy!
arse bumhole + It wasn't built there for it's view's my friend, built for it's topography.
Awesome video
Thank you so much! I just loved visiting this castle with all of its history.
Pardon my ignorance, but how different did these look back in the day? Aside from being empty with no relics or anything, was there wood, doors, etc? Really curious what they would have looked like in real time.
What you're seeing now is effectively the skeleton of the castle,In it's day the castle was very different in appearance,apart from
wooden doors and floors ,the castle was painted a bright white colour.
You have a nice watch.
That's one comment I didn't expect from my Conwy Castle video. It's a Seiko, which I still have, but I stopped wearing watches years ago.
Been to Conwy when I stop at Llandudno walked outside of the castle and didn't pay the £11.10 entry fee.I saw it on RUclips for free and couldn't walk up the steps now anyway
(ok on the flat ground)
but me and the stairs are not friends now !
I would wear a pretty medieval dress and dance around lol
The sign would be pronounced:
---
Croeso cymysg yng nghestyll Edward
--> kroyso kuh-misg uhng hesti[ll] Edward

--> Gol-oog thi-thim ond dee-gon oh ruhm uhn mihn-ed-fah Con-wee.

--> Cred-ookh nay bay-dee-oh, ond duhnar forth how-th ee mehwn.
Cyn i'r twll yn daethoch chi drwyddo gael ei agor byddai'n rhaid ichi ddringo llethr serth, croesi pont godi, dod o dan borthcwlis, drwy ddwy set o ddorau (y cyfan yn cael ei ddiogelu â thyllau llofruddio ac agennau saethu) er mwyn cyrraedd maes y gad wrth farbican y gorllewin.
--> Kin ee-r too[ll] uh die-thokh khee droo-ee-tho g-iy-l ey agor buh-thy'n ride ee-khee thringo [ll]ethur sehrth, croy-see pont gohdee, dohd oh dan borthcooliss, droo-ee thoo-ee set oh thor-aye (uh kuhvan uhn k-iy-l ey thee-oh-gehl-ee aah thu[ll]-aye [ll]oh-vrih-thee-oh ahk ah-gen-aye s-aye-thee) ehr moo-een kuh-r-aye-th m-aye-s uh gad oorth farbican uh gohr-[ll]eh-win.
Llai o sioe na Phorth y Brenin yng Nghaernarfon; llai o horwth na'r porthdy yn Harlech, mae'n croesawu cyfeillion ac yn gwrthod gelynion.
--> [ll]-aye oh shoy nah Forth uh Breh-nihn uhng h-aye-r-nahr-von; [ll]-aye oh hohr-ooth nah-r porth-dee uhn Harlekh, m-aye-n kroys-ah-wee kuh-vey-[ll]ee-ohn ahk uhn goor-thohd gel-uhn-ee-on.
---
Where the [ll] sound is not easily describable, but is like putting your tongue in the same position to say the letter "L", but then with a sharp exhale while the tip of your tongue is still touching the top front teeth.
The [kh] (Welsh 'ch') sound is much like the Scottish 'ch' as in Loch Ness.
Doubt that made it any easier for you to pronounce... ;)
Wow-thank you for taking the time to give us the pronunciations. I wish you were there with me when I was trying to pronounce those words!
😊😊😊😊
i lov you vdyoue
Where did you get the music playing at about 9:30
I purchased the royalty-free (but not free) music from Pond5.
@@AndysAwesomeAdventures what is the title. Thanks for the reply!
It's called Medieval Court Music by Soundvisual.
@@AndysAwesomeAdventures thanks!
when i get as rich as elon one day I will build a modern castle so grand it will be the new world wonder!
What would be awesome is if someone took a castle like this, left all the architecture like it is. Put put like a modern bed, toilet, and shower in there. And a few electrical plugs. Everything else: the walls, the floor, the dining hall... stays exactly how it is. Make it decent to sleep in of course. Then turn it into a hotel. Not this one but another one.
If anyone knows of a castle hotel like that, please let me know. The ones I found are too modern on the inside.
It’s so strange how the Scots, Irish, and Welsh all yielded the last name Conway. Mine is Irish from Ó Connmháchain
Winterfell😮
Do you have to pay for entering the castle ?
There is an entrance fee-currently about 11 Euros per Adult.
The best castles in my opinion are:
Chepstow castle
Pembroke castle
Karlstein castle
Conwy castle
Malbork castle
😀🤑😀💙
Song name?
Which song? Please give me the timecode for the beginning of the song and I'll see if I'm able to figure it out.
@@AndysAwesomeAdventures9:50
Love your videos btw
Glad you enjoy the videos-thanks! The name of the song is Medieval Music by SoundVisual. The composer is Jonathan Slatter. I purchased the song on a royalty-free (but not free) website called Pond5.
Imagine how it looked when it was first built ! Great video but lose the music .The lute player is killing me .
Thanks. I thought the music added a Middle Ages touch but to each his own.
This is great my friend. Love this channel!! We agree, we love his castle when we lived in the UK. New subscriber!! Check us out at Travel Global as we would love the support!
Thank you and good luck!

There is property in Scotland
Ironic that a castle build by the English flies a Welsh flag
How do you know it was built by the English?
@@r2dadizubz + Built by Edward I my friend, well documented.
@@henryvagincourt4502 I don't believe the official narrative on anything anymore, my friend.
@@r2dadizubz Edward 1built Beaumaris castle, Harlech, Caernarfon, Conwy, many others to contain the Welsh who were not United. Edwards son was born there to make him the first Prince of Wales. Caernarfon is impressive seen from the Menai Strait
@@irenejohnston6802 the castles were already there before the English invaded.
Urmom Linda bugh luvs you an dad Donovan luvs you have fun with your mom Linda bugh luvs you an dad Donovan luvs you are going to keep it forever 😂 Spalding county Detroit manor mansions
You don't have a castle like that in the United States, on account of being made of plastic.
shame it was built for all the wrong reasons.
ALL castles/fortresses are built for the wrong reasons
