Newport Castle, a historical site nestled within the modern city of Newport, Wales, stands as the final remains of a significant waterfront fortress, originally built in the 14th century. Visitors can still appreciate its scale from the bridge across the River Usk, where the central tower and surrounding structures reveal the castle's formidable architecture.
The castle's well-preserved visual elements, including its towering layout and the ancient moat once filled by the tidal flow, offer a glimpse into the past, dating back to when it served as a motte-and-bailey castle near the cathedral on Stow Hill. Situated in proximity to other historical attractions like Caerleon Roman Amphitheatre and Barracks, Newport Castle enriches the cultural fabric of the region.
