St Fagans Natural History Museum in Cardiff, Cardiff, Wales


St Fagans is one of Europe's leading open-air museums and Wales's most popular heritage attraction. It stands in the grounds of St Fagans Castle

St Fagans Castle is a Grade 1 listed building and one of the finest Elizabethan manor houses in Wales. Originally built in 1580, much of the interior was re-modelled during the 19th century.The rooms are furnished to reflect the lives of the family in residence at the end of the century, that of Lord Robert-Windsor, later the Earl of Plymouth, who donated the Castle along with 18 acres of land to National Museum Wales in 1946.

Beautiful garden displays surround the Castle including an Italian Garden (laid out in 1902, restored in 2003) and thyme garden, while there are many features original to the site.


Traditional crafts and activities bring St Fagans alive.

Craftsmen demonstrate traditional skills in their workshops and their produce is usually on sale.

There are native breeds of livestock in the fields and farmyards at St Fagans, and demonstrations of farming tasks take place daily.

Visit the 18th century Smithy where horses were shod, household items made and mended, and metal tyres put on wagon wheels.
