What weapon was used to attack Cardiff castle and was it attacked?

Cardiff Castle was attacked during the Welsh Wars of Edward I in the late 13th century, specifically in 1282. The primary weapon used during the siege was a trebuchet, a type of medieval siege engine designed to hurl large stones or projectiles. While the castle itself was not breached during the siege, it underwent significant military action as part of the broader conflict in Wales. Today, the castle stands as a historical monument rather than a military fortress.
