|August 05, 2025
THERE will be an opportunity to remember and reflect on the victims of wars past and present during this year’s National Eisteddfod, the Archdruid said.
-
Mererid Hopwood noted the sound of war has been heard throughout the centuries.
‘There was war when Iolo Morganwg opened the Gorsedd in Pontypridd in 1814 and the end of the Second World War was announced during the National Eisteddfod in Rhosllannerchrugog.
She suggested that Eisteddfodwyr should read the report of the Peace Academy and see what difference “Wales as a Nation of Peace could make to the world” and announced an intention to create a monument to the principles of Iolo Morganwg.
