Our Mission and Vision

In 2021 The Cyfarthfa Plan presented a high-level strategic vision for the castle and an enlarged Cyfarthfa Park.

The Cyfarthfa Foundation - a registered charity working in partnership with Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council - has prioritised the recommendations in the masterplan, and is working on the detailed planning, proposals and advocacy for the necessary funds to support this substantial project.

Donating to the Cyfarthfa Foundation is an investment in the future of a vital piece of Welsh history. Your support will help us preserve and transform Cyfarthfa Castle and Park, ensuring it remains a hub of culture, education, and community for generations to come.    Donate Here

Our aims focus across four key areas:

  • Castle development: Restoring the Grade I listed Cyfarthfa Castle to become a world-class museum, art gallery, and cultural attraction.
  • Policy and advocacy: Championing the site’s global and national significance with governments, politicians, stakeholders, trusts, foundations, patrons and other organisations and individuals.
  • Placemaking and park: Enhancing the wider park with new leisure, recreation, and educational opportunities to attract more visitors.
  • Community and wellbeing: Creating programs and events that connect people with Cyfarthfa's rich heritage and cultural assets.​​
