History of Cardiff

Wales has an interesting history from pre-history to present day, from Stone Age cave dwellers to Celts, Druids to Romans, Dark Ages to present.

In AD 60 the Romans moved into Wales to make an end of the Druids. Western tribes clung fiercely to their independence, but their followed a wholesale massacre of these 'troublemakers' and the destruction of their sacred groves.

At the end of the 18th Century the future capital Cardiff was a small market town, primarily an exporter of agricultural produce with fewer than two thousand inhabitants. But with industrial expansion of the coal market in 1830 to meet the needs of heavy industry, Cardiff's population grew more than six-fold, and by mid-century tenfold. Cardiff's prosperity was firmly founded.
