About

The local business Beaumaris Castle in Anglesey is a ticket attraction on Castle St, Beaumaris LL58 8AP, United Kingdom. The castle is known for its unfinished medieval architecture, with concentric walls and a moat that never reached full height.

The castle draws 4.6 out of 5 from 8,788 reviews, placing it among the most reviewed historic sites on the island. Opening hours change for different seasons, so the schedule shifts through the year. Five photographs illustrate the listing, and the website at https://cadw.gov.wales/visit/places-to-visit/beaumaris-castle provides further detail.
