Open Doors - St Marcella's Church, Denbigh

Built on the 7th century site of St. Marcella Church, the church is classic Vale of Clwyd twin-nave style and is largely the result of remodelling about 1500. St Marcella’s was the parish church for Denbigh throughout the medieval period. 

Exceptionally fine and well preserved, it is one of the most important churches in North Wales and contains some notable monuments. Buried inside are the map-maker Humphrey Llwyd, members of the powerful Salusbury family and the heart of Richard Clough, the Denbigh-born merchant. Outside is the grave of Twm o'r Nant, a dramatist and poet of Denbigh.

The 2024 Denbigh Open Doors Weekend launches Friday 20 September 2024 with a geology evening lecture at the Theatr Twm o'r Nant. Over the following two days, Saturday and Sunday 21 and 22 September 2024 from 10am to 5pm, around thirty historically important sites in the locale will be open to the public, supplemented by children’s workshops and guided tours. A booking service for the sites/workshops and guided tours offering a limited number of places will be available through Denbigh Library, closer to the start of the weekend.
