The most technically perfect medieval castle in Britain, Beaumaris wasbegun in 1295, in reaction to a Welsh rising, and stands commanding the old Ferry Crossing to Anglesey. Work progressed at an astonishing speed but funds and supplies faltered and after 30 years the Castle was still not complete. This magnificent white elephant is the most fascinating of Edward I’s Castles to explore.
Yn dechnegol hwn yw’r castell perffeithiaf o’r canol oesoedd ym Mhrydain. Yn 1295 y dechreuwyd gweithio arno mewn ymateb iwrthryfel ymhlith y Cymry ac mae mewn lleallweddol ger y man lle ’roedd yr hen Fferi yncroesi i Fôn. Gwnaed y gwaith arno’n gyflym iawn ond rhedwyd allan o arian a defnyddiau adeiladu; ar ôl 30 mlynedd ’doedd y castell bythwedi ei gwblhau. Yr adeilad gwych ond anghyflawn hwn yw’r castell mwyaf rhyfeddol o holl gestyll Edward I.
