Talgarth, Parish and administrative district in Powys, Wales.
Located in southern Powys between Hay-on-Wye and Brecon, Talgarth spans across 5,527 hectares of Welsh countryside near the Black Mountains.
The town functioned as the capital of the medieval Welsh Kingdom of Brycheiniog and contains a 14th-century parish church with a defensive tower house.
The market hall, built in 1877, continues to host regular Friday markets and monthly horse and cattle fairs, maintaining local trade traditions.
The town provides essential services through two banks, a post office handling money orders and telegrams, and regular council meetings for community matters.
Trefecca House, established in 1752 by Howel Harris, stands one mile from town as a college for Calvinistic Methodist students.
