Merthyr Cynog Church (trans. the shrine of Cynog) dates from the 14th century and parts reputedly date back to the 12th century. It also has a massive tower. A place of worship was probably founded on this site by St Cynog himself in the 5th century. Tradition has it that he was murdered by invading Saxons. During the Middle Ages the church became a place of pilgrimage as it apparently possessed Cynog's torque or collar.
