About Castell Coch
Castell Coch, Welsh for red castle, is a Gothic Revival castle of the 19th century above the village of Tongwynlais. The Normans built the first castle here after 1081, and Gilbert de Clare later raised a stone one on its earth motte between 1267 and 1277; that may have been destroyed in 1314. The ruins came to the Bute family in 1760. The 3rd Marquess of Bute inherited them in 1848 and had William Burges rebuild the castle as an occasional summer home. Burges rebuilt the outside between 1875 and 1879; after his death in 1881 his team completed the work in 1891. Bute planted a vineyard below it. The 5th Marquess handed it to the state in 1950, and Cadw now looks after it.
