Llangollen Bridge

Pont Llangollen

A 16th-century stone arch bridge spanning the swift River Dee, listed among the Seven Wonders of Wales and a landmark of the town.

The old bridge in Llangollen was first built in the 14th century, and the present stone structure dates from a 16th-century rebuild. Its four stone arches span the fast-flowing River Dee, and it is included among the ‘Seven Wonders of Wales’ in traditional rhyme. The west bank is the town's shopping street, and the east bank is next to the steam railway station. The bridge and riverbanks are good photo spots, and kayakers can often be seen running the rapids. It is free to visit and within walking distance, making it a good starting point for a stroll around town.
