It is a medieval fortress located in Gwyneth County, northwest Wales. The first defensive structure on this site was a mound and fenced castle built in the late 11th century, which was replaced by the current stone structure by King Edward I of England in 1283. The castles and towns established by Edward I became the administrative center of North Wales, so the defensive works were built on a grand scale. The design of the castle is intentionally linked to the Roman history of Caernarfon - nearby is the Roman fortress of Segantin, and the walls of the castle evoke the city walls of Constantinople.
