Glyndŵr University (, ) is a university with campuses at Wrexham, Northop and St Asaph in north-east Wales.

The University is named after the medieval Welsh prince Owain Glyndŵr, who first suggested the establishment of universities throughout Wales in the early 15th century.

Glyndŵr University ( GU ) offers both undergraduate and postgraduate degrees, as well as professional courses.

Owain Glyndŵr (), or Owain Glyn Dŵr, ( c. 1349 or 1359 – c. 1416 ) was a Welsh ruler and the last native Welshman to hold the title Prince of Wales.

Glyndŵr has remained a notable figure in the popular culture of both Wales and England, portrayed in William Shakespeare's play Henry IV, Part 1 ( anglicised as Owen Glendower ) as a wild and exotic man ruled by magic and emotion (" at my nativity, The front of heaven was full of fiery shapes, Of burning cressets, and at my birth The frame and huge foundation of the earth Shaked like a coward.

In 2000, celebrations were held all over Wales to commemorate the 600th anniversary of the Glyndŵr rising.

Glyndŵr was born circa 1354 ( possibly 1359 ) to a prosperous landed family, part of the Anglo-Welsh gentry of the Welsh Marches ( the border between England and Wales ) in northeast Wales.

Upon the death of his father-in-law, Sir David Hanmer, in late 1387, knighted earlier that very year by Richard II, Glyndŵr returned to Wales as executor of his estate.

For example, during the 1980s, a group calling themselves " Meibion Glyndŵr " claimed responsibility for the burning of English holiday homes in Wales.

A statue of Owain Glyndŵr on horseback was installed in 2007 in The Square in Corwen, Denbighshire to commemorate his life and his lasting influence on Wales.
