St. Fagans

St. Fagans

St. Fagans (Welsh "Sain Ffagan") is a village in the west of the city of Cardiff, Wales and in the traditional county of Glamorgan.

It lies outside the city proper, but inside the associated principal area. To the south lies the village of Michaelston-super-Ely, and to the east the suburb of Fairwater. St Fagans lies on the River Ely, and previously had a railway station on the South Wales Main Line.

It is home to St Fagans National History Museum (formerly called the Museum of Welsh Life) and St Fagans Castle.

In 1648, the Battle of St Fagans took place close by.
