History

The facility, which was designed by Clough Williams-Ellis, was officially opened by Colonel David Davies MP as the Festiniog and District Heroes Memorial Hospital in 1927. It was intended to commemorate local soldiers who had died in the First World War. After joining the National Health Service in 1948, it developed as a community hospital but, after inpatient services transferred to Ysbyty Alltwen in Tremadog, it closed to inpatients in March 2013. It then re-opened as the Canolfan Goffa Ffestiniog health centre in November 2017.
