Open Doors - Oystermouth Castle

Oystermouth Castle is a Norman Grade 1 historic building and scheduled Ancient Monument located in the heart of Mumbles, perched above the village. This well-preserved castle, dating back to the 11th century, was occupied by the De Braose family who held lordship over Gower in the 13th century.

Entry to the castle will be free to all, and there will be guided tours by volunteers throughout the day, that will look at the fantastic history, architecture and archaeology of the castle.
