Conwy Culture Centre

Situated where the former Ysgol Bodlondeb was built in 1897, the Culture Centre is now a place for locals and visitors after being re-built in 2019. The Culture Centre houses the Conwy Archives and Conwy Library, in addition to a café and sensory garden.

There are nearly 150,000 unique archive and museum artefacts that tell the story of Conwy County. The collection is accessible to locals and visitors for research, expression of interest and taking part in a range of arts and heritage projects.

Head to the back of the building to see if you can spot one of the Corvids from the Bird Trail.

Can you spot the three Cranes?

Why Cranes?

Inspired by the story of Sadako Sasaki, the congregation of St Mary’s Church, Conwy have been working with Pensychnant Conservation Centre to create a community art installation of more than 1000 origami peace cranes. These cranes were displayed in St Mary’s Church from the Summer to Autumn of 2024.

Take a closer look at the engravings on the Cranes and see if you can spot the Welsh, English or Japanese words and artwork.
