When we visited this attraction the front gate was open but the information centre was closed. No opening times were displayed. Bring your imagination when you visit as there is only one information board at the back of the information centre. Maybe there's more information in the centre!!! The best photo of this area is on Google maps, just so you get the size of the area in perspective. Unfortunately the road and houses were built on the site. We didn't visit the baths over the road as there's no information on how or where to get in. The locals know how to get in both sites as dogs where being walked in the fort and lads where playing football in the baths. Do you think these ruins will last another 2000 years.
I had a 2 weeks holiday in Wales in 2019 and wanted to visit this place on the day when I visited the castle, too. So I parked next to the castle, and after visiting that, I walked uphill on the streets to find the roman fort. I could not find any opening hours anywhere - Google map, Tripadvisor or Visit-Wales website, was not stated any hours. It was a Saturday about 1pm, and I found the place closed. Even on the gate there was not a sign showing opening times just a big padlock. Only a notice not to climb on the monument, but the gate was locked otherwise. I just walked near the fence a few minutes trying to find someone on the ground, and met on the street another disappointed visitor, so we shared our frustration about the lack of the opening times anywhere. In the meantime - which was just 2 minutes maybe - we have seen a man with his 8-10 years old son climb over the fence and go into the ground... No Comment. Maybe this was the way to get in??? Very disappointing visit, and that I walked a lot uphill to find the big nothing. At least on Google map should be stated the opening hours. Hopefully it has been changed since then, otherwise no point to visit.
Really well maintained and free access if you go around the back of the small building. Just one information board hence the loss of one star, otherwise what a great place. A great place to gather pine cones too.
It's a shame that the museum was closed but you can still walk around to the back where the ruins are. Theres a lot of base bricks in the shape of where the walls of the buildings would have been so bring your imagination because NO Information is given.
Considering this is a free site to visit, this is a huge treasure of heritage, and well worth a visit. This isn't just almost two thousand years old and still very visible, but it's also incredibly important in this region's history. Even folk stories that begin dynasties from which the Princes of Wales begin their origin stories were founded here. The site's quite large, well-maintained, and there are information boards to learn from, too; but you'll be best served by reading some more about this before/after your visit - particularly concerning emperor Macsen.
Caernarfon and the people that run this site don't make the most of the history here. The site is open to go into, and free. The shop and building attached was un staffed when we visited. Missing some of the great history here, information boards around the site could help.
Roman Fort just outside Caernarfon. Not sure of the facilities on site as the 'house' was shut when we visited. Parking is free on the main road plenty when we visited and access via a gate. It was free to visit the ruins. It had one information board but could of done with more to explain what each building was for, if known. Not much of interest for small children.
Easy to park alone the road. Free entry. There is a little building that also has some information to read upon arrival
An interesting Roman fort with strategic location near Caernarfon. It has a large section of wall almost 10ft tall which is quite rare in the U.K. Almost half is excavated and some buildings are signed but it’s interesting trying to identify the buildings. It has a visitor centre but it is only open a few days of the year.
Quite a good site, quite big as well, you may have to do some research on it, as people said the museum was shut but you just walk around the back to it, found it very interesting but I do like Roman remains, you need to have imagination, but I thought there was plenty of remains for you to get a good idea of itVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
