The Fifteenth Century. Early History. Llanelwy is the Welsh name for the place called St Asaph. It means the sacred religious enclosure on the banks of the River Elwy. It is impossible to give an historically accurate account of the beginnings of Christianity in the early settlement at Llanelwy.
Welcome to St Asaph. St Asaph, between the rivers Elwy and Clwyd, has been a centre of Christianity since Kentigern reputedly established a cell here c.560AD, followed by Asa (later known as Asaph). The small city, centred on the cathedral, has attracted or produced many writers, linguists and musicians over the centuries.
St Asaph is the second smallest settlement in the United Kingdom to officially be considered a city. This city in Wales dates to the 9th century when a monastery was built. Categories: Cities in Wales. 9th-century establishments in Europe.
