Welcome to the Pembroke Story Website..                 

 Cymraeg

This website seeks to explore the long and prestigious history of Pembroke and to describe the heritage projects which have been instigated by 21C Community Association.

  

Pembroke, which gave its name to the present County of Pembrokeshire, is a mediaeval walled town complete with a magnificent castle dating back to the 11th century. Many of the great and famous form part of our story: Pembroke castle was the birthplace of Henry VII, founder of the Tudor dynasty.  More, its story stretches back into the mists of prehistory when 10,000 years ago man made his way up the Pembroke river to set up home in the Cat’s Hole Cave and Wogan’s Cavern.  Once a thriving port and agricultural centre, now - all industry gone - a tourist destination, there is so much to find out about our fascinating town.

A Home For The Story

We are delighted to have found a home for the Pembroke Story and Old Main Street Dolly Mixture project at the Tabermacle in Main Street, Pembroke.

In partnership with the Tabernacle congregation we are now able to use the church as a base to put on displays and to hold meetings and events, as well as the every day work of the team of Volunteers involved.
