One of the fiefdoms of the English king Edward I. He had a "royal" village built, surrounded by ramparts, to house English merchants who, strongly encouraged by the king, wished to settle in Wales. They owed a duty to the king, and thus formed an auxiliary army to the royal regiments in the event of a Welsh attack. Today, the town (population approx. 15,000) attracts a growing number of tourists who come to visit the famous fortified castle. Conwy also boasts green spaces for walking along the river...A source of confusion! Don't confuse Conwy with Colwyn Bay, a seaside resort 8 km to the north-east.
