BBC Wales History

The Owain Glyndŵr Centre in Machynlleth is to receive a £275,000 grant from CADW, the Welsh Assembly Government's historic environment service. The funding will be used to restore the Grade I-listed Parliament House.

The Parliament House in Machynlleth

The building provides meeting rooms for community activities. The Old Parliament Building - the site of the parliament held by Owain Glyndŵr in midsummer 1404 when he was crowned Prince of Wales - was converted into an Interpretative Centre which explores the campaigns, life, ideals and history of Owain Glyndŵr.

The Owain Glyndŵr Centre is open to the public from 10am to 4pm until the end of September. Find out more about the history of the building on the centre's website.
