This is a short film focusing on French and German travellers to the industrial town of Merthyr Tydfil in the mid-nineteenth century and their descriptions of the town. The film was produced by Treehouse Media and the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales in partnership with Bangor University and the Centre for Advanced Welsh and Celtic Studies as part of the AHRC funded project “European Travellers to Wales”.
