Owain Glyndwr Proclaimed Prince of Wales

September 16, 1400

A Welsh landowner with a grudge against a rude neighbor raised his banner at Glyndyfrdwy and rekindled a nation's dormant fury. Within months the revolt swept the mountains, burning English castles and summoning a parliament at Machynlleth. The last true Welsh rebellion had begun. Glyndwr eluded capture for years, vanishing into Welsh legend with his death date and burial site unknown.
