Cadw has launched a call for photographs of beautiful Welsh historical sites which could be featured in next year’s official 2025 Cadw calendar.

From magnificent, awe-inspiring vistas to intriguing and overlooked details, Cadw is on the lookout for stunning visuals that showcase Wales’ historical buildings and archaeological sites in all their glory.

Whether you’ve visited a well-known castle, explored an ancient monument, or stumbled upon a hidden gem, Cadw wants to see a range of photographs covering all the seasons of the year.

Successful contributors will receive a complimentary copy of the calendar. The deadline for submissions is Friday 19 January 2024.

A Cadw spokesperson said: “This is your opportunity to share your photographic talents with a wider audience. Your images could be adorning the walls of homes and offices throughout Wales and the wider world in 2025.”

Submission Guidelines:

• High-resolution, landscape-oriented photographs are preferred.
• Ground shots only – no drone photography
• You may submit up to 3 photos per entry.
• Photos should be original and taken by you.
• No people in the photographs.

Send your photos to [email protected] with the subject line “2025 Cadw Calendar”. Include your name, contact information, and a brief description of each photo.
