Museum of Welsh Life Amgueddfa Werin Cymru - Saint Fagans

The Museum of Welsh Life opened in 1948, since then it has become the most popular attraction in Wales.

This Museum shows Wales people lived, worked .... over the last five hundred years!!!!!!!!!

Here you can learn about ancestors... it is very similar how my old grandparents used to live in the countryside in Spain....

The Museum stands in the grounds of St Fagans Castle, a late 16th century manor house

The park has around 30 or 40 original buildings, moved from various parts of Wales and re-erected to show how the people of Wales lived at various times in history.
The buildings include a school, a chapel, a Workmen's Institute, several workshops where craftsmen demonstrate their skills to the public.

All Photos had been take by me and Stace (Beach_dog)

Does anybody know the name of this cottage (another cottage) I think it looks like my mothers house which was called Hen Bwythyn Cilhaul, which was supposed to be taken to the musuem from Llawryglyn, Powys.
