Santes Dwynwen and her Church

Llanddwyn Island and the Santes Dwynwen church are a magnet for romantics with fifty to sixty thousand visitors a year. For many years the ancient church has looked like a bomb site, with rubble filling the insides of fallen walls and arches. But now it has been excavated and the circular cemetery wall unearthed, with work underway to restore the main arch and other featurues.

If you’ve been before, it’s time to take a second look. If you’ve not yet been, 25^thJanuary is the most romantic date to visit, on Santes Dwynwen’s Day.
