St Afan's Church

St Afan's Church stands at an elevation of 114.9 meters, featuring traditional Welsh architectural elements and stone construction typical of Ceredigion religious buildings.

The church site traces its origins to the 6th century when Saint Afan established the first religious structure, with complete reconstruction taking place in 1873.

The church maintains bilingual services in Welsh and English, housing a permanent display of a Welsh Bible from 1620 and early 20th-century stained glass.

The building remains open to visitors throughout the week, offering parking facilities nearby and wheelchair access through the main entrance on the south side.

Inside the church, a gilt silver dish displays intricate engravings of ten warriors and two dragons locked in combat, representing ancient Welsh mythology.
