P-04-562 Caernarfon Heritage Centre
We the undersigned call on the Welsh Government to fund a
Heritage Centre in Caernarfon. The town deserves a centre to display its
history and the history of its people, its industries, its language and its
arts in an engaging building purpose-built in Caernarfon as a home for the
treasures taken from it.
Close to 1,000 people—residents of Caernarfon and district
and visitors to the area are calling for a resource of this nature in what is
one of Wales’ most ancient and significant towns. Visitors who take one of my
tours around Caernarfon www.drodre.co ask, ‘Where is the Town Museum?, to which
the answer is that the town no longer possesses such a thing! This news is met
with universal astonishment, given that history surrounds one at every turn.
