Описание к видео Cardiff Castle's 2000 years of history.mpg

Cardiff Castle has watched over 2000 years of history unfold, witnessing battles, sieges and executions. The Romans built a fort here then the Normans erected a castle and town walls before Welsh hero Owain Glyndwr razed it all to the ground in the fifteenth century. The export of iron and coal from Cardiff in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries brought great wealth and the Castle in particular was richly decorated in Gothic Revival style and has been described as 'extraordinary and incomparable'.
