Owain Glyndŵr's Parliament House, Medieval parliament building in Machynlleth, Wales.

The Parliament House features six bays, diamond leaded windows, and a tall slate roof with rubble end chimney stacks on its stone exterior.

The building gained recognition as the location where Owain Glyndŵr established his Welsh parliament and received foreign envoys during the 1404 uprising.

The interior contains a mural by Scottish artist Murray McNeel Caird Urquhart depicting scenes from Owain Glyndŵr's life, including the Battle of Hyddgen.

The Parliament House functions as an exhibition center with displays about Welsh history and maintains regular opening hours throughout the year.

Tree-ring analysis of the timber structure indicates the wood was cut in 1470, suggesting the current building postdates Glyndŵr's actual parliament.
