Editing Llandovery (section)

===Welsh hero===
A {{convert|16|ft|m|adj=mid|-high}} stainless-steel statue to [[Llywelyn ap Gruffydd Fychan]] was unveiled in 2001 on the north side of Llandovery Castle, overlooking the place of his execution 600 years earlier. He had led the army of King [[Henry IV of England|Henry IV]] on a "wild goose chase", under the pretence of leading them to a secret rebel camp and an ambush of Glyndŵr's forces. King Henry lost patience with him, exposed the charade and had him half hanged, disembowelled in front of his own eyes, beheaded and quartered – the quarters salted and dispatched to other Welsh towns for public display.

The design of the statue, by Toby and Gideon Petersen, was chosen after a national competition. It was funded by the National Lottery and the [[Arts Council of Wales]].
