===Norman and medieval castle=== [[File:Llandovery Castle, Carmarthenshire.jpeg|left|thumb|[[Llandovery Castle]], Carmarthenshire, by [[Henry Gastineau]], seen about 1830]] Attractions in the town include the remains of the Norman [[Llandovery Castle]], built in 1110. It was almost immediately captured by the Welsh and changed hands between them and the [[Normans]] until the reign of King [[Edward I of England]] in the late 13th century. The castle was used by King [[Henry IV of England|Henry IV]] while on a sortie into Wales, when he executed [[Llywelyn ap Gruffydd Fychan]] in the market place. It was later attacked by the forces of [[Owain Glyndŵr]] in 1403.
