EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning postcard, captured in the year 1930, showcases the impressive Drawbridge Tower of Conway Castle in Wales. The image presents a breathtaking view of the castle's defensive structure, which was a crucial part of the medieval fortress's defenses. The drawbridge, a key feature of the tower, is raised, giving an insight into the castle's strategic capabilities. Conway Castle, also known as Conway Castle of the Marches or Conway Suspension Bridge, is a magnificent fortification located in the historic town of Conway in Conwy County Borough, Wales. It was built by Edward I of England between 1283 and 1289 as part of his campaign to conquer Wales and secure the English border. The Judges' Real, or the Royal Palace, is a prominent structure within the castle complex. It was the residence of the Lord of the Castle and the Judges during the English law courts held in Conway. The tower in the image is part of the Judges' Real and served as a lookout point and a defensive structure. The postcard's photograph beautifully captures the intricate details of the castle's architecture, from the intricate stonework to the towering battlements. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the hustle and bustle of medieval life within the castle walls. This postcard is not only a captivating piece of history but also a testament to the skill and artistry of the photographer who captured this moment in time. The image invites us to explore the rich history of Conway Castle and the stories it holds within its ancient walls.
