Cardigan, Market town on River Teifi in Ceredigion, Wales.
The town stretches along both sides of River Teifi, featuring Georgian buildings and Victorian warehouses connected by an ancient stone bridge.
Norman forces built the first wooden castle in 1093, later replaced with stone fortifications by Lord Rhys ap Gruffydd in 1171.
The town marked the beginning of Welsh cultural festivals when the first recorded Eisteddfod took place at Cardigan Castle in 1176.
Theatr Mwldan presents regular film screenings, concerts, and theatrical performances throughout the year in its modern three-screen venue.
The local shipbuilding industry constructed over 300 vessels during the 18th century, when Cardigan operated as southern Wales' principal seaport.
