Beaumaris Castle: Unfinished Masterpiece of Edward I
In the late 13th century, Edward I set out to conquer Wales. The Beaumaris Castle was one of Edward’s iron ring castles which he built to remind the Welsh of his authority and victory over them. While these iron ring castles are some of the oldest and frankly most impressive castles, the Beaumaris Castle stands unique among them. This is because the Beaumaris Castle, despite looking the opposite, is an unfinished castle. Moreover, many call it the greatest castle that never was or never finished. This castle was the last Edwardian castle following the conquering of Wales. Therefore, both Edward and his architect George wanted to make this one a true masterpiece. The construction of the castle lasted for nearly 50 years and in the end, it was still not true to the image that George had in his mind.
