The Physicians of Myddfai and the Lady of the Lake

A striking tale from the Mabinogion featuring Llyn y Fan Fach below the brooding Black Mountain in the west of the National Park.

 

The nearby village of Myddfai claims fame as the birth place of modern medicine and the legend of the Physicians of Myddfai. Myths about The Lady of the Lake persist from ancient times and some believe that the Arthurian legend of the famous Lady of the Lake and Excalibur stem from here.
