Power and Courage

The Royal Dragon has represented both Wales and the Tudor family since the days of Henry VIII’s great-grandfather Sir Owen Tudor.

A Fiery Guardian

Adopted by Henry VII following his victory at Bosworth Field, the Royal Dragon combined the Tudor colours of green and white with the dragon’s red.

A Celtic Connection

One of the most recognisable symbols in British heraldry, the iconic dragon officially became the flag of Wales in 1959.
