Having just completed a £30 Million pound revamp - St Fagans National Museum is a unique view into Wales past. More than forty Buildings from different ages have been all brought together for visitors to walk in and around. The museum also holds displays of traditional crafts with a working blacksmith forge, a pottery, a weaver, miller, and clog maker. It also includes two working water mills: one flour mill and one wool mill. Part of the site includes a small working farm which concentrates on preserving local Welsh native breeds of livestock. Produce from the museum's bakery and flour mill is available for sale.
