The Welsh town of Crickhowell is located in the county of Powys. Crug Hywel, an ancient hill fort, provided the inspiration for the town's name. The magnificent Crickhowell Castle, also called Alisby's Castle, dates back to the 12th century and offers breath-taking views of the Usk valley. St. Edmund's Church, which was constructed in the 14th century and is still in use today, is a close second in terms of architectural beauty. There are a variety of bars, eateries, retail establishments, and coffee shops in town.
