Llanrwst ('church or parish of Saint Grwst'; Welsh pronunciation: [ɬanˈruːst]) is a market town and community on the A470 road and the River Conwy, in Conwy County Borough, Wales, and the historic county of Denbighshire. It developed round the wool trade and became known also for the making of harps and clocks.[3] Today, less than one mile (two kilometres) from the edge of Snowdonia,[4] its main pursuit is tourism. Notable buildings include almshouses, two 17th-century chapels, and the Parish Church of St Grwst, which holds a stone coffin of Llywelyn the Great. The 2011 census gave it a population of 3,323.
