Owain Glyndŵr's Parliament House, located in Machynlleth, Powys, Wales, is a historically significant building traditionally associated with the Welsh leader Owain Glyndŵr, who held a parliament there after being crowned Prince of Wales in 1404. Although the current structure likely dates to the 15th century, it has undergone extensive renovations, particularly in the early 20th century when it was transformed into a social center. The building features a unique architectural design with a substantial hall-house layout and refined carpentry. Notably, it houses a mural by artist Murray Urquhart, depicting scenes from Glyndŵr's life, including the Battle of Hyddgen. Adjacent to the Parliament House is the Glyndŵr Institute, a Tudor Revival building that serves as a civic center and tourist office, making the site a rich destination for those interested in Welsh history and culture.
