Bishops Palace Description

To the west of St David's Cathedral is the Bishop's Palace, with fine arcading, built 1280-1350 for Henry de Gower. The whole building stands on a vaulted undercroft. It is particularly worth visiting the Great Hall, with a handsome porch and rose windows.

St Davids Bishops Palace belongs to a group of medieval buildings unique in Wales. The arcaded parapets are distinctively adorned with the finest medieval heads and animal figures in Wales.
