Holywell has been a pilgrimage destination for over 300 years. The St. Winefride well, one of the Seven Wonders of Wales, is at the origin of this pilgrimage. This healing water was already used by the Romans to soothe the pain of rheumatism.Flint Castle. Now in ruins, this yellowish stone castle, begun in 1277, was the first of the famous "iron belt" erected by the English king Edward I during his conquest of Wales. Strategically placed at the heart of the Dee estuary, Flint Castle is the fruit of a particular and innovative architectural research for its time. Well worth a visit!
