Location / Nearby Enniscorthy Castle

Description

Enniscorthy Castle, in the heart of Enniscorthy town, was originally built in the 13th century, and has been ‘home’ to Norman knights, English armies, Irish rebels and prisoners, and local merchant families. Why not visit our dungeon to see the rare medieval wall art –The Halberdier or our battlements at the top of the castle to marvel at the amazing views of Vinegar Hill Battlefield, Enniscorthy town, and the sights. We explore the development of the Castle and town from its earliest Norman origins, with a special focus on the Castle as a family home. Visitors can also view the ‘Enniscorthy Industries ‘exhibition on the ground floor from the early 1600’s onward when Enniscorthy began to grow and prosper as a market town,our exhibition to renowned Irish furniture designer and architect Eileen Gray.

Enniscorthy Castle

Myself and my husband visited Enniscorthy Castle recently and loved our visit and found the talk about the history of the castle very interesting.

Overpriced

The castle has a good location and I know because of Covid some services may have been restricted. The reception staff were friendly but there did not seem to be any guided tours - you were left to wander around yourself and I felt the admission fee of €9 for students and seniors was a little steep as there was very little to see and we got no information on the history of the place.
