Pembroke is a small historic town and civil parish in Pembrokeshire, Wales, sitting on a peninsula above the tidal Cleddau estuary. Its compact medieval layout is dominated by Pembroke Castle, a Norman fortress famous as the birthplace of Henry VII, and the town grew as a market and harbour settlement with historical links to nearby Pembroke Dock and Milford Haven.
Today the local economy mixes tourism, agriculture and small-scale industry, with visitors drawn to the castle, coastal scenery and easy access to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park; there is also a lively community life with independent shops, cafés and seasonal events that reflect its maritime and rural heritage.
