Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Cymru 2010 Bydd Eisteddfod Genedlaethol 2010 yn cael ei chynnal ar hen safle dur, Glyn Ebwy ym Mlaenau Gwent. Mae'r Eisteddfod Genedlaethol yn mynd yn ôl i 1176. Dywedir i'r Eisteddfod gyntaf gael ei chynnal dan nawdd Arglwydd Rhys yng Nghastell Aberteifi y flwyddyn honno. Yno, cynhaliwyd ymryson, a gwahoddwyd beirdd a cherddorion o bob cwr o'r wlad i gystadlu yn erbyn ei gilydd. Rhoddwyd cadair wrth fwrdd yr Arglwydd i'r cerddor a'r bardd buddugol, traddodiad sydd yn parhau hyd heddiw yn yr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol. The National Eisteddfod of Wales can be traced back to 1176 when it is said that the first Eisteddfod was held, under the auspices of Lord Rhys, at his castle in Cardigan. There he held a grand gathering to which were invited poets and musicians from all over the country. A chair at the Lord's table was awarded to the best poet and musician, a tradition that prevails in the modern day National Eisteddfod. There's a warm welcome for everyone at the Eisteddfod, regardless of your nationality or language. You don't have to speak Welsh to enjoy the National Eisteddfod. People from all parts of the world are warmly welcomed.
