Medieval Castle in Wales reopens to the public

Cadw, the Welsh Assembly Government’s heritage service, has announced that Old Beaupré Castle in southern Wales will re-open following its closure due to essential structural and conservation works on its magnificently carved Renaissance porch. The medieval manor house castle will open its doors again on Friday 18 March ready to welcome visitors.

Old Beaupré Castle dates from the 14th century and was modified during the Tudor period. Also known as Beawpire, Bewerpere, Bewpyr and Y Bewpur, the castle includes several medieval buildings that are in good condition.
