Additional Details:
Standing on the banks of the River Suir on the main Dublin-Cork road is the splendid structure of Cahir Castle. Erected in 1142 by Conor O'Brien, Prince of Thomond, this mainly 15th century castle, now fully restored and open to the public, was the largest of its period in Ireland. Guided tours are available. This castle has witnessed much history, been under siege in 1599 and later in 1650 was surrendered to Cromwell.
