Denbigh Castle, located in Denbighshire, Wales, is a prominent example of medieval military architecture with a history rooted in the aftermath of the Welsh conquest. Construction of the castle began around 1282 under the orders of King Edward I, following his victory over the Welsh prince Llywelyn ap Gruffudd.
The castle was part of Edward's campaign to establish English dominance in Wales and was strategically positioned on a hilltop to oversee the surrounding region and deter rebellion.
Designed by the master mason James of Saint George, Denbigh Castle features a distinctive triple-towered gatehouse, which served both defensive and ceremonial functions. The fortress includes robust curtain walls, multiple towers, and a series of domestic buildings within its inner ward.
Despite its formidable defenses, the castle saw significant action during the Welsh uprising led by Madog ap Llywelyn in 1294 and later during the English Civil War in the 17th century. After falling into partial ruin, Denbigh Castle has been preserved as a historical site.
