Pennal Letter

The Pennal Letter was a historical letter by Owain Glyndŵr to Charles VI King of France .Owain composed the letter in Pennal, North Wales in 1406, and set out his vision of an independent Wales.[1]

The letter is regarded as unique as the only surviving written documentation detailing secular and religious policies for a potential independent Wales in the Middle Ages.

The letter was briefly exhibited at the National Library of Wales in 2000, and a campaign has been founded for its permanent return and display at the National Assembly in Cardiff.
