Visitors can enjoy free access to six of North Wales' sensational castles on St David's Day.
In celebration of our patron saint, 16 Cadw sites that normally charge admission will open their doors this Friday.
Castles at Beaumaris, Caernarfon, Conwy, Criccieth, Dolwyddelan and Harlech are free to all visitors for the one-day event that also marks Visit Wales' Year of Discovery.
Minister for Culture and Tourism, Lord Elis-Thomas, said:
“Everyone can explore our rich history through our heritage sites in Wales as Cadw sites are free for everyone on the national day of our Patron Saint”.
“From historic buildings to iconic sites, Wales is a country full of fascinating heritage and legendary monuments and you can discover the stories that they have to share for free yourselves on St Davids Day."
"Everyone will be able to continue or begin their own legendary journey into our past to uncover the stories in our castles, abbeys and other historic sites.”
