🏰Plant yn mynd am ddim yn lleoliadau Cadw dydd Sul yma 14eg Medi i ddathlu Owain Glyndŵr!

⚔️Mae llawer yn ystyried mai Tywysog brodorol olaf Cymru oedd Owain Glyndŵr a chaiff ei goffáu bob blwyddyn ar 16 Medi, gan nodi’r diwrnod y cafodd yr arwr cenedlaethol Cymreig ei gyhoeddi'n Dywysog Cymru gan ei ddilynwyr yn 1400.

Mae Cadw, gwasanaeth amgylchedd hanesyddol Llywodraeth Cymru sy'n cyflwyno’r cynnig mynediad am ddim, yn gofalu am gannoedd o lefydd nodedig ledled y wlad. Yn ystod ei wrthryfel, gwarchaeodd Owain Glyndŵr ar lawer o'r cestyll enwog sydd bellach yng ngofal Cadw, gan gynnwys Caernarfon, Coety, Dinefwr a Chydweli.

🏰Children go free at Cadw locations this Sunday 14th September to celebrate Owain Glyndŵr!

⚔️Considered by many to be the last native Prince of Wales, Owain Glyndŵr is commemorated annually on 16 September, marking the anniversary of the Welsh national hero being proclaimed Prince of Wales by his followers in 1400.

Cadw, the Welsh Government’s historical environment service and who is running the free entry offer, looks after hundreds of notable places across the country. During his rebellion, Owain Glyndŵr besieged many of the famous castles now in the care of Cadw, including Caernarfon, Coety, Dinefwr and Kidwelly.

Mae hud a lledrith y Pasg yn y Castell ac rydym angen eich help!

Roedden ni wedi cuddio cwningod ac wyau Pasg yn y castell ond mae rhai o'r wyau wedi deor, felly rydym yn sicr fod gennym gywion yma hefyd erbyn hyn.

Gan fod hud a lledrith yn y castell gallai'r cwningod, yr wyau a'r cywion ddiflannu'n gyflym iawn. Allwch chi ein helpu ni i ddod o hyd iddyn nhw a thynnu llun o lle maen nhw'n cuddio?

Byddwn yn rhoi gwobr i chi am eich holl help. Rhannwch eich lluniau yn y sylwadau!

Nid oes angen archebu lle ar gyfer y digwyddiad hwn ac nid oes rhaid i chi dalu unrhyw dâl ychwanegol i blant gymryd rhan.

There is Easter magic in the Castle and we need your help!

Easter bunnies and eggs were hidden in the castle but some of the eggs have hatched, so we are sure we now have chicks here too.

As there is magic in the castle the bunnies, eggs and chicks could disappear very quickly. Can you help us find them and take a photo of where they are hiding.

We will give you a reward for all your help. Share your photos with us in the comments!

You do not need to book for this event and you do not have to pay any extra for children to participate in the trail.

Allwch chi helpu ni dod o hyd iddynt? Ar Ddydd Gŵyl Dewi ymunwch â Llwybr y Cathod Duon a cheisio ffeindio nhw! Dewch o hyd i un, ac mae siawns ennill gwobr!

❓ Did you know that Kidwelly is famous for its black cats? Some sneaky felines have made their way into the castle… but we can’t find them!

Can you help us track them down? Join the Black Cat Trail this St David’s Day and see if you can spot them all! Find one, and you might just get a reward!

But don’t worry—we won’t be sending them away! We just need to know where they’re hiding so we can keep them fed. 🐾
