A rare view of Caernafon Castle in Wales, probably taken shortly before the restoration of the towers which began in 1870. The castle is still important in the history of Great Britain. On July 13, 1911 the investiture of Prince Edward (later King Edward VIII) and on July 1, 1969 the investiture of Prince Charles as the Prince of Wales took place in this castle.
