Caergwrle Castle, also known as Queen's Hope in scholarly texts, is located in the town of Caergwrle, in North Wales.

The castle was one of those constructed during King Edward I's second Welsh campaign.

Today, little remains of the fortifications, other than some earthwork and a smattering of recognisable masonry. The castle is located at the top of a steep hill that may or may not have been man-made.
