Tretower Court & Castle
This is an early 13th Century circular tower (Keep) and medieval house, with a reconstructed medieval garden. The property is in the care of CADW.
PLEASE NOTE:
Tretower Court and Castle will be closed to the public for at least a year, beginning on the 1 October 2008, while an ambitious programme of investigation and conservation work takes place. This will include extensive repairs to the roof, considerable refurbishment of the interiors and new interpretation for visitors. We hope the site will reopen in spring 2010.
