Mystery Of Giant Gogmagog’s Hidden Treasure Beneath Castell Dinas Bran

Ellen Lloyd – AncientPages.com – Like most ancient castles in Wales, the Medieval castle Castell Dinas Bran is rich in history and surrounded by a flair of mysticism.

Located high above the small town of Llangollen, on the top of a great mountain Castell Dinas Bran, also referred to as the Crow City Castle.

The castle was already in ruins in the 13^th century, making it challenging to reconstruct its history.

However, historians think the castle was most likely constructed in the 1260s by Lord of Dinas Bran Gruffydd Maelor II, who died nine years later. The region in Wales where the castle stands, was occupied by the Celtic Ordovices, and Dinas Bran is said to be the site of an ancient Iron-Age hillfort, believed to have been the home of the Kings of Powys.
