Amgueddfa Llechi Cymru - National Slate Museum

Llanberis, within the Padarn Country Park, Llanberis ,
Caewyd Chwarel Dinorwig ym 1969. Nid saernïo wagenni a bwrw cledrau sydd yma heddiw ond adrodd hanes arbennig iawn: stori'r diwydiant llechi yng Nghymru. Lleolir Amgueddfa Llechi Cymru yng ngweithdai Fictoraidd hen chwarel Dinorwig, yng nghysgod Mynydd Elidir. Yma, gallwch deithio nôl i weld gorffennol diwydiant a ffordd o fyw sydd bellach yn rhan annatod o hunaniaeth Cymru. Dinorwig Quarry closed in 1969. Today – rather than fashioning wagons and forging rails – the workshops tell a very special story: the story of the Welsh slate industry. The National Slate Museum is sited in the Victorian workshops built in the shadow of Elidir mountain, site of the vast Dinorwig quarry. Here you can travel into the past of an industry and a way of life that has chiselled itself into the very being of this country.
