Especially the pictures on the wall was amazing. They describes the Jesus story. There was Last Supper description as well. There is Noah's Ark. I really like this church. I will visit again. There is an officer explains you everything about church. He has good knowledge. You can ask him.

Beautiful Catholic church now in the st fagans museum. Lovely icons around the walls and the story of the Saint appears in a sculptured single piece wooden beam. It is in one of the new areas that have been opened to the public since the museum ha had major investment to extend the grounds and buildings.

This medieval church is vibrant with wall paintings and feels like it has been brought to life within its new location.

It is dedicated to a the Welsh sixth Century Bishop of Llandaff who was known as a follower and friend of St David. St Teilo set up the first church and is buried at Llandaff Cathedral not far from St Fagans.

The church originally built in the 12th century in Llandeilo, Tal-y-Bont only revealed prereformation murals when it was being relocated here. The originals are in the National Museum of Wales, but the freshly painted reproductions and borrowed scenes from other known examples give this place a magical quality, almost transfixing those who enter.
