Caernarfon's town walls are a medieval defensive structure around the town of Caernarfon in North Wales. The walls were constructed between 1283 and 1292 after the foundation of Caernarfon by Edward I, alongside the adjacent castle. The walls are 734 m (2,408 ft) long and include eight towers and two medieval gatehouses. The project was completed using large numbers of labourers brought in from England; the cost of building the walls came to around £3,500, a large sum for the period. The walls were significantly damaged during the rebellion of Madog ap Llywelyn in 1294, and had to be repaired at considerable expense. Political changes in the 16th century reduced the need to maintain such defences around the town. Today the walls form part of the UNESCO world heritage site administered by C

rdfs:comment	L'enceinte de Caernarfon est une muraille défensive médiévale protégeant la ville de Caernarfon, au pays de Galles. Édifiée entre 1283 et 1292, sous le règne d'Édouard Ier, cette enceinte mesure 734 m de long et comprend huit tours et deux corps de garde. Très endommagée lors de la révolte de Madog ap Llywelyn, en 1294, elle est reconstruite à grands frais l'année suivante. Son importance militaire diminue à partir du XVIe siècle, mais elle n'est jamais détruite. Depuis 1986, elle fait partie du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO avec d'autres fortifications édouardiennes de la région.
